Pakistan is about to experience a major transformation in food manufacturing with the launch of FoodAg Manufacturing 2025. This groundbreaking event, happening from February 26 to 28, 2025, at Expo Centre, Lahore, is the first of its kind in the country. Organized by the Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP), it will introduce the latest global innovations, advanced technologies, and smart solutions that will modernize the food industry.
Pakistan is among the top 10 agricultural countries in the world, thanks to its fertile lands, diverse crops, and strong livestock sector. However, food manufacturing in the country has remained mostly traditional. FoodAg Manufacturing 2025 aims to change that by bringing modern solutions, automation, and advanced processing techniques to Pakistan’s food sector, opening doors for global trade and increased productivity.
This event will bring together leading food manufacturers, global experts, and technology providers under one roof. It will feature over 35 international exhibitors from countries like China, South Korea, Turkey, and Italy, showcasing the latest advancements in agro-food production and packaging. Alongside them, 107 Pakistani companies and 24 packaging firms will highlight the country’s food production potential.
One of the most exciting parts of the event is the ‘Hall of Fame’, where the most revolutionary food processing technologies will be showcased. Top global companies and industry leaders will present game-changing innovations that are shaping the future of food manufacturing. This section will also serve as a networking hub, allowing local businesses to connect with investors, technology providers, and international partners to expand their operations.

Another key feature of FoodAg Manufacturing 2025 is the Food Summit, where industry experts will discuss the future of food production. The summit will cover important topics such as AI-driven food processing, sustainable practices, smart farming, and food safety. Experts and policymakers will share their insights on how businesses can modernize food manufacturing, reduce waste, improve efficiency, and boost exports.
With food exports reaching a record $8.3 billion in 2023-24, Pakistan has enormous potential to expand its global market share. By adopting smarter food processing methods, better packaging, and automation, the country can significantly increase its exports and strengthen its position in the global food industry.
Hosting this event in Lahore, Pakistan’s agricultural and industrial hub, makes it even more impactful. Lahore has long been at the center of the country’s trade, business, and innovation. Over three days, industry pioneers, policymakers, and business leaders will gather to explore new opportunities in agri-tech, food packaging, and sustainable food processing.
The event will also feature discussions on halal food labeling for exports, Pakistan’s logistics industry, value addition in food production, and potential trade partnerships with Japan. There will be seminars on horticulture and aquaculture expansion, the role of Pakistan Single Window in trade facilitation, and innovative ideas from agriculture startups. One of the highlights will be an analysis of a newly developed citrus variety, which could boost Pakistan’s agricultural exports in the coming years.
FoodAg Manufacturing 2025 is more than just an exhibition; it is a milestone event that will reshape Pakistan’s food industry. By reducing waste, improving efficiency, and introducing advanced manufacturing solutions, this event will unlock new business opportunities and strengthen Pakistan’s position in the global food market. For farmers, manufacturers, exporters, and investors, this marks the beginning of a new era where Pakistan’s food industry will not only keep up with global standards but might even lead the way in food manufacturing innovation.
