Russia’s Premier Exhibition for the Food Processing Industry
International Exhibition for Equipment, Technologies, Raw Materials and Ingredients for the Food Processing Industry – AGROPRODMASH 2027 – will take place in September 2027 at Pavilion 3 of the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre in Moscow. Organised by EXPOCENTRE AO, the exhibition is supported by the Russian Ministry of Agriculture, the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade, and operates under the auspices of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
A 30-Year Legacy of Industry Leadership
Founded in 1996, AGROPRODMASH was created in response to Russia’s urgent need to develop domestic food production and acquire advanced high-tech equipment and machinery. Over three decades, it has become the best platform for solving practical production problems and studying promising trends in the food industry.
The last edition in 2026 confirmed the exhibition’s status as the leading technology platform for the food processing industry in Russia and the CIS countries. In that year, the exhibition attracted 853 companies from 22 countries, occupying over 55,000 square metres and welcoming more than 26,000 industry professionals. China led foreign participation with 144 exhibitors, followed by Turkiye with 27, Belarus with 23, and Italy with 18. According to the Russian National Exhibition Rating, AGROPRODMASH was recognised as the best exhibition in Russia in the Food Industry: Equipment and Ingredients category.
What the Exhibition Covers
AGROPRODMASH is unique in that it showcases equipment, technologies, and solutions for every step of food production and distribution — from the manufacturing of raw materials and ingredients to the production of final products, packaging, quality control, refrigeration, storage, and logistics.
