Ethiopia's premier trade show prepares to kick off this April

The next edition of Ethiopia’s premier international horticulture and floriculture trade fair 'HortiFlora' has been announced and is set to take place from 1-3 April 2025

The previous event, held in 2023, concluded with strong outcomes for both exhibitors and attendees, marking a significant return after a four-year hiatus. Nearly 100 companies participated, drawing a robust turnout of international buyers eager to explore Ethiopia’s offerings for export.

The 2025 Hortiflora Expo is anticipated to surpass 2023’s event, with even more exhibitors and larger booths showcasing a broader array of flowers and fresh produce.

Additionally, with the Ethiopian Birr now a free-floating currency, Ethiopian exports have gained a competitive edge, enhancing the country’s appeal as a business destination. This currency shift is expected to draw even more international buyers next April, eager to source high-quality fresh flowers and produce from Ethiopia.
