AFRICA'S PRIME INDUSTRIAL, COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL LIGHTING EXPO


With a population of over 107 million people, Ethiopia is the second most populous country in Africa. Over the last decade, Ethiopia has had one of the fastest growing economies in the world. In 2017, Ethiopia's real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) expanded by 10.9 percent, and is expected to grow by 8.5%, according to the World Bank.



LIGHTEXPO has been a unique event in the African market. Having being branched out from BUILDEXPO previously, LIGHTEXPO will be the largest event for the lighting market in Africa. After successful editions in Kenya & Tanzania, LIGHTEXPO is all set to launch in Ethiopia at The Millennium Hall, Addis Ababa, from 22-24 February 2025.



The lighting industry in Africa is on a globalization drive, providing the African consumers with a variety of lighting products sourced domestically as well as internationally. In the context of the reduced import duty, this globalization drive is further gaining momentum.



LIGHTEXPO 2025 will be your window to meeting high-level buyers within the African Industry. As an exhibitor, the show will offer you the chance of excellent returns on your investment, establishing new contacts in the industry of one of Africa's fastest growing economies.
