BUILDEXPO Africa Kenya 2026 is the only show with the widest range of the latest technology in building material, mining machines, construction machinery and heavy equipment. At the 27th edition of BUILDEXPO Africa Kenya 2026, East Africa’s largest building and construction fair, we bring you exhibitors from over 40 countries who are the finest in infrastructure development.
Find what suits you best from about 14.3 million business prospects during the three-day event, with over 10,000 products, equipment and machinery on display across an expanse of more than 10,000 square meters. Last year’s event witnessed international pavilion participation from India, Turkey, China, Italy, Malaysia and Germany.
Over the years, we have grown to cater to the demands of not just the Kenyan market, but of the whole region of East Africa. This mega expo is the ideal forum for international players to showcase their products and services to the huge market in Africa.
We receive visitors from across East Africa, and trade visitors are invited directly in collaboration with regional trade bodies in Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda, Somalia, Mozambique and Congo. Kenya is certainly one of the biggest markets in Africa, but BUILDEXPO Africa Kenya 2026 also lays strong emphasis on attracting traders and importers from neighboring countries.

The exhibition attracts leading companies and professionals from more than 30 countries, along with trade visitors from across East & Central Africa. It offers an ideal environment for manufacturers, suppliers, contractors, architects, engineers, and investors to connect, network, and explore new business opportunities in one of Africa’s fastest-growing construction markets.
