ABOUT THE FAIR
The Kazakhstan International Bakery Show is the only specialized trade fair in Central Asia dedicated entirely to the bakery and confectionery industry. It serves as an indispensable platform for professionals, companies, and investors who wish to stay informed about current developments and emerging trends. The event is organized every two years by the renowned company United Expo, LLC at the IEC EXPO International Exhibition Center in Astana – Kazakhstan’s economic and political hub.
KIBS offers comprehensive insights into the latest international developments as well as the specific dynamics of the Kazakh market. It contributes to the modernization of the sector and fosters international networking between producers, suppliers, technology providers, and service companies.
The fair covers all key aspects of the bakery industry, ranging from production technologies, raw materials, and ingredients to automation, franchising, and packaging solutions. The exhibition is further enriched by presentations on food additives, accessories, bakery and confectionery tools, commercial equipment, and industry-related services. In addition to product displays, visitors can benefit from an extensive professional program featuring conferences, training sessions, live demonstrations, and masterclasses where the latest technologies are showcased in practice.
The range of exhibits includes fully automated production lines, dough processing machines, ovens, cooling and storage technologies, and ingredients for specialty products such as gluten-free, vegan, or sugar-free baked goods. The portfolio also features packaging design, enterprise software solutions (ERP, MES, CRM), IoT-based quality control systems, and complete business concepts for bakeries, pastry shops, and cafés.
KIBS is tailored to the specific needs of the Central Asian market while also reflecting global industry trends. Exhibitors represent sectors such as mechanical engineering, food technology, raw material trade, packaging, digitalization, and retail. The audience includes bakers, pastry chefs, manufacturers, wholesalers, restaurateurs, franchisees, investors, as well as trade visitors from the HoReCa and retail sectors – a qualified professional audience with clear investment interests.
The fair plays a particularly important role as a catalyst for innovation in Kazakhstan. It actively promotes the adoption of new technologies and the professionalization of the bakery and confectionery sector. Astana as the host city underscores this ambition: the young, dynamic capital offers excellent infrastructure, strong international connections, and with the IEC EXPO International Exhibition Center, provides ideal conditions for a high-profile professional event. The venue is easily accessible by car, public transport, or shuttle services, ensuring smooth access for all participants.
The Kazakhstan International Bakery Show is thus an exclusive, regionally anchored trade fair held every two years in Astana – the Central Asian hotspot for innovation, networking, and business development in the bakery world.
The Kazakhstan International Bakery Show will take place on 3 days from Wednesday, 16. June to Friday, 18. June 2027 in Astana.
