Kenya Avocado Trade Exhibition (KATEX)

Nairobi, Tuesday, July 2, 2024

Dear Exhibitor,

The international avocado industry is rapidly evolving, including significant changes in the production and trade flow of avocados in Africa. Notably, avocado production in Kenya increased by 28% to a total of 114 kt in 2023 and continues to grow in 2024, making it one of Kenya’s top fresh produce products.
In 2023, Kenya exported 58% of its avocados to Europe, 36% to the Middle East, and 5% to Asia. As production expands, so will exports to these regions and new markets. To support this growth, HPP Worldwide has initiated a new international avocado trade event to promote investments, production, and exports of avocados in Kenya in 2025.

From Wednesday, March 12 to Friday, March 14, the inaugural Kenya Avocado Trade Exhibition (KATEX) will be held at the Sarit Center in Nairobi, Kenya. This event will focus on farmers, marketers, investors, producers, and exporters in this fast-growing industry. It aims to address the current status of the sector, promote existing and new export markets, and bring together all those active in this high-potential fresh produce industry, which continues to innovate with this healthy and delicious product.

We look forward to your participation in the first edition of KATEX, the Kenya Avocado Trade Exhibition.

With best regards,

Dick van Raamsdonk
