Africa’s Largest Food & Beverage Event

Join us in Lagos for Food & Beverage West Africa (FAB) 2026, the largest dedicated food and beverage trade show on the continent. The show takes place right in the heart of Lagos, Africa’s biggest city, and offers a direct way for exporters to tap into some of the fastest growing consumer markets in the world.

Why West Africa?

This region is positioned to play a major role in Africa’s $2.1 trillion consumer economy by the end of 2025. Nigeria’s food market alone is projected to hit $233.53 billion next year, with steady growth expected through 2030. Demand for international products is on the rise, and distributors are actively looking for new brands to bring into the market, not just in Nigeria but across the entire West African region.

Why Attend Food & Beverage West Africa 2026?

The 2025 edition of FAB brought in more than 6,000 visitors and over 300 exhibitors from 40 different countries, making it the largest event of its kind in Africa.

The show connects exporters directly with decision-makers across West Africa, including distributors, retailers, and hospitality groups who are looking to add new products to their portfolios. In 2025, 81% of exhibitors rebooked for 2026 while on-site, and 93% of visitors said they found new suppliers.

Plus, when you exhibit through the USA Pavilion, your booth package includes a fully built and branded space, company listing in the printed and digital show directory and logistical assistance from a dedicated team both before the show and on-site.

With regional trade agreements like AfCFTA and ECOWAS opening new doors across Africa, FAB isn’t just about doing business in Nigeria. It’s about getting your products into multiple West African markets from one central platform.
