IFTEX 2027 - International Floriculture Trade Fair 2027
IFTEX (International Floriculture Trade Expo) is Africa's largest flower-industry trade fair, held annually in Nairobi, Kenya. The next edition, IFTEX 2027, runs June 2-4, 2027 in Nairobi, organized by HPP International, an exhibition organizer with over 40 years' experience in floriculture and horticulture trade shows.
The trade-only expo brings together growers, breeders, exporters, buyers, logistics providers and regulators from across the global floriculture value chain. IFTEX 2026, the 13th edition, drew a record 210 exhibitors from Africa, Europe, Asia and the Americas - an 11% rise on the previous year - with roughly one-fifth of the exhibition space taken by first-time exhibitors.
Kenya is Africa's largest flower exporter, the world's leading supplier of cut roses to the European Union and the third-largest exporter of cut flowers globally. IFTEX is the key annual meeting point for Kenya's and the international florist sector, covering breeding, growing, export logistics, cold-chain and phytosanitary compliance topics.
