ABOUT THE FAIR
CAFEXPO Honduras is the most important trade fair for specialty coffee in Honduras and enjoys a strong international reputation. Each year, the prestigious Copantl Hotel & Convention Center in San Pedro Sula transforms into a vibrant hub for the global coffee community. Organized by the Honduran Coffee Institute (IHCAFE), the event uniquely brings together expertise, innovation, and the country’s deeply rooted coffee culture.
More than just a conventional trade fair, CAFEXPO serves as a specialized platform focused on quality, origin, and the future of the coffee sector. Producers, exporters, roasters, machinery manufacturers, packaging experts, baristas, and service providers from Honduras and around the world gather to exchange insights, share innovations, and foster new business opportunities. At the heart of it all: Honduran coffee – from select microlots and cutting-edge processing methods to roasting trends and creative value-added products such as cascara, cold brews, and specialty infusions.
A particular highlight of the fair includes high-level cuppings, live roasting sessions, hands-on brewing techniques, and expert presentations on topics such as quality assurance, export strategies, market opportunities, and sustainable cultivation. The national coffee competition, along with the presentation of prestigious awards, positions CAFEXPO as a showcase of excellence and traceability.
CAFEXPO’s significance for Honduras cannot be overstated. It highlights not only the economic and cultural importance of coffee to the country but also strategically connects the local industry with international markets and trends. The event targets decision-makers, buyers, baristas, start-ups, and coffee enthusiasts alike – in short, anyone who wants to actively shape the future of coffee, not just consume it.
Exhibitors represent a wide range of sectors including agrotechnology, mechanical engineering, packaging, gastronomy, logistics, and trade – a thematic diversity that sets CAFEXPO apart.
The Copantl Hotel & Convention Center, one of San Pedro Sula’s premier hotels, offers spacious, modern exhibition areas alongside high-quality accommodations. Thanks to its central location, the venue is just minutes from Ramón Villeda Morales International Airport – ideal for both national and international guests seeking comfort, efficiency, and coffee excellence all in one place.
The Cafexpo Honduras will take place on 2 days from Friday, 19. March to Saturday, 20. March 2027 in San Pedro Sula.
