Building on a successful 2025 edition that united over 300 senior executives across buying, selling, finance, sourcing, and supply chain roles, Agri-Food Europe 2026 stands as the strategic industry event for global leaders in the food and agriculture commodity markets.
The event delivers two days of critical market insight, commercial strategy, forecasting and high-impact networking, to empower industry stakeholders to navigate the complexity of today’s and tomorrow’s agrifood landscape with confidence.
Elisabeth Mork-Eidem, Expana’s VP of Events and Communications explained: “We have new and exciting plans for this year’s event. From a new breakout day on ‘Strategic Data-Informed Leadership’ for senior decision-makers, to in depth workshops for key commodity markets including for the dairy, tropical softs and animal nutrition sectors.“
“With speakers already confirmed from leading brands including Pizza Hut, Sodexo, the World Trade Organization (WTO), and Agrifirm, expect deep dives into the disruptors shaping global agrifood markets.”
Featured sessions over the two days include a Retail & Foodservice Panel, where major buyers will share how they’re reshaping sourcing strategies for 2026–27. Key topics such as geopolitics, trade dynamics, and macroeconomic trends will be explored to help attendees build more resilient sourcing strategies in today’s volatile global landscape. Exclusive insights from C-suite leaders and future-facing perspectives from UCLA food futurist Jack Bobo will equip delegates with the tools to make smarter, more strategic decisions over the year ahead. Plus, Expana’s pricing and forecasting teams will provide in-depth analysis of commodity markets, assessing what is driving them now, and what is coming next.
Developed by the intelligence provider behind Feedinfo, Mintec, Strategie Grains, Urner Barry, and Tropical Research Services (TRS), Agri-Food Europe 2026 delivers critical insights into the trends and disruptions transforming markets. The summit equips attendees with the strategic knowledge and tools to make better, future-ready commercial decisions.
Those joining will gain exclusive market intelligence to shape their commercial strategies for the year ahead, expand their network with in-person connections at senior levels and stay ahead of shifts in trade, regulation, sourcing and trends.
