Overview
The 6th African Agriculture & Agri-Food Summit (2–6 November 2026, Istanbul & Bursa, Türkiye) is a premier international business mission connecting African agribusiness leaders, investors and institutions with Türkiye’s dynamic agriculture and agri-food ecosystem. Held under the theme “Connect · Collaborate · Grow”, the summit is organised by AgroConnect (Global Agro Network), GR Events World and the AgroConnect Business Club — bringing together decision-makers from Cameroon, Senegal, Togo, Burkina Faso, Chad, Niger, Nigeria, Ghana, Morocco and Algeria for five days of high-value trade, matchmaking and cooperation. More than a one-off event, the African Agriculture & Agri-Food Summit is building a sustainable, year-round community — a network where African and Turkish stakeholders move forward together, sharing knowledge, supply chains and investment opportunities long after the summit ends. Each edition strengthens the bonds formed in previous years, creating an ever-growing ecosystem of trust, joint ventures and mutual growth between the two continents. Stronger Partnerships. Sustainable Futures. Africa and Türkiye are two of the world’s fastest-growing agricultural markets. Türkiye is a global leader in greenhouse technology, irrigation, food processing, machinery and seed development, while Africa holds roughly 60 % of the world’s remaining uncultivated arable land and a rapidly expanding food-security agenda. This summit sits precisely at that intersection — a rare, focused platform where African buyers, importers, cooperatives, ministries and entrepreneurs meet Turkish manufacturers, exporters and technology providers face to face to unlock opportunities, build partnerships, and grow together. Turquaz Travel offers two all-inclusive delegate packages: the 4-Star Package at €1,850 per person and the 5-Star Package at €2,150 per person. Both include your official summit participation, hotel accommodation in Istanbul and Bursa, all transfers, the official visa invitation letter, pre-arranged B2B meetings, guided agricultural and agri-food site visits, institutional and cultural visits, a networking gala dinner and your participation certificate — a complete, results-oriented mission from arrival to departure. Whether you are sourcing agricultural machinery and inputs, seeking technology transfer, exploring joint ventures, or building an export/import pipeline between Africa and Türkiye, the 6th African Agriculture & Agri-Food Summit is where opportunities become partnerships.
