Lomé International Fair: preparations underway

Preparations are intensifying for the 20th edition of the Lomé International Fair. This event will take place from November 28 to December 14, 2025, with China as the guest of honor.

China will be represented by a delegation of businesses showcasing its expertise in various sectors. A China National Day is planned for November 29, featuring exhibitions, cultural events, and business meetings to strengthen trade between the two countries.

This edition is all the more significant as it coincides with the 40th anniversary of CETEF, the organizing institution. A total of 1,300 exhibitors are expected on a 90,000 m² site, with more than 700,000 visitors expected during the two weeks of activities.

Several innovations are in preparation, including:

• Reorganization of the pavilions
• Introduction of digital tools to facilitate the participation of exhibitors and visitors
