Venue: Exhibition Center "Korme"
Food & Package Fair Shymkent is an international business platform for showcasing the latest solutions in the food industry, packaging, processing, equipment and production technologies. The exhibition promotes the development of business ties, export potential and international cooperation in Central Asia and beyond. The event brings together manufacturers, suppliers, retailers, technology companies, startups and leaders of the food and packaging industry under one roof, forming a three-day international business ecosystem. Participants gain access to new markets, direct contacts with buyers, investors and international partners, as well as an intensive business and educational program.
The exhibition hosts the international FoodTech & PackFuture forum, dedicated to artificial intelligence in the food industry, automation and robotization of production, smart and eco-friendly packaging, and digital transformation of logistics and retail. The format includes panel discussions, expert presentations and pitch sessions of innovative companies. The business program is complemented by B2B negotiations, the international conference Export Without Borders, Startup Pitch Arena for innovative projects, International Chef Battle cooking shows and Gala Networking Dinner with participants, sponsors and partners. The exhibition covers both B2B and B2C audiences: Consumer Day features tastings, brand promotions, interactive company zones, product presentations and prize draws. The three days of the exhibition combine technology and innovation, manufacturing and packaging, export and international trade, marketing and consumer trends.
Shymkent was chosen as the venue — a trade and industrial center and a Central Asian logistics hub with significant export potential and proximity to Uzbekistan, China and Kyrgyzstan. This provides participants with access to the markets of Kazakhstan, Central Asian countries, CIS, the Middle East and Europe.
