Kenya Meat Festival

Welcome to Kenya’s ultimate meat, poultry and seafood experience

Kenya’s meat, poultry and fisheries sector plays a vital role in food security, nutrition, culture, and economic growth.

From beef, goat, sheep, and pork to poultry, game meat, and fish, meat consumption in Kenya is deeply rooted in tradition, celebrations, and modern dining culture.

Nairobi, as a vibrant metropolitan hub, is the ideal location to showcase Kenya’s diverse meat industry—bringing together farmers, processors, chefs, butchers, foodies, and investors under one platform.

The Kenya Meat Festival will celebrate the country’s rich meat culture while highlighting innovations in sustainable livestock production, meat processing, culinary arts, and food safety.

It will serve as both a consumer experience and a business platform, linking the farm-to-fork value chain.

The Expo, held in conjunction with the Africa Food & Drink Festival, has the following objectives:

  • Showcase Kenya’s diverse meat, poultry and seafood products, cuisines, and processing innovations.

  • Promote sustainable livestock and fisheries production and value addition.

  • Provide a networking platform for meat producers, processors, traders, and food industry and hospitality stakeholders.

  • Celebrate Kenya’s culinary diversity through meat-centered experiences.

  • Educate consumers on nutrition, food safety, and meat preparation techniques.

The Kenya Meat Festival will be a first-of-its-kind celebration of the meat, poultry and seafood and culinary sector in Kenya, blending business opportunities with consumer experiences.

It promises to attract thousands of visitors—locals, regional guests, and international tourists—while positioning Nairobi as a leading food and cultural hub in Africa.
