The Food Africa B2B Matchmaking Platform is a complimentary business networking service designed to connect exhibitors, buyers, importers, exporters, distributors and food industry professionals before and during Africa's leading food and beverage trade exhibition.

Hosted at the Egypt International Exhibition Center (EIEC) in Cairo, the platform enables participants to schedule pre-arranged one-to-one meetings, discover new suppliers, identify international buyers and develop long-term business partnerships across Africa, the Middle East and global markets.
