Explore Agribusiness Opportunities
Explore agriculture, processing, food systems and value addition at UKAIS 2026.
The UK food and drink import market reached a historic £66.9 billion in 2025, with non-EU import volumes rising strongly as manufacturers diversified supply chains. That creates a sharper opening for African producers, processors and exporters that can meet UK standards, pricing, consistency and traceability requirements.
UKAIS 2026 will focus on where African agribusiness can move beyond raw commodity exports into higher-value processing, branded products, cold chain, packaging, logistics and route-to-market partnerships. The opportunity is strongest in areas such as coffee, cocoa, cashew, horticulture, spices, grains, pulses, livestock, aquaculture and value-added food products.
For UK buyers, distributors and investors, this is a chance to identify credible supply partners, assess processing capacity, explore off-take models and engage with commercially ready agribusiness projects.
The programme connects directly to agro-processing, food systems transformation, farm-to-factory value chains, export competitiveness, agritech, post-harvest systems, and investment-ready project pitches.
