The coming together of a prestigious
series of international events

dmg events and KAOUN International, operating as dmg & KAOUN, are excited to announce the rebranding of Africa’s Big 7 to the Africa Food Show. As part of the renowned Gulfood series, this event builds on the unparalleled success of the world’s largest F&B exhibition in Dubai, the dynamic growth of the Saudi Food Show, and the legacy of Africa’s Big 7. Together, these three industry-leading brands, powered by the world’s top event organizers, come together to deliver Africa’s most impactful F&B sourcing exhibition.

After a remarkable 21-year journey, Africa’s Big 7 transitions into the Africa Food Show, continuing its legacy as the premier retail-ready food and beverage trade event in Africa. While Africa’s Big 7 will no longer exist as a standalone event, its global platform for exhibitors, industry leaders, and communities will evolve with the new brand, offering even greater opportunities for connecting with top trade buyers and influencers.

Two global leaders, KAOUN International, the event organizing company of Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), and dmg events, a wholly owned subsidiary of Daily Mail and General Trust plc (DMGT), have forged a powerful partnership to expand an international portfolio in the food and hospitality sectors. By uniting world-leading brands and unparalleled expertise, we’re committed to delivering leading events that open doors to emerging markets and unlock new growth opportunities for the global F&B community.
