Invitation: Horticultural Trade Mission to Ethiopia

From 23 to 26 March 2026, the Horticultural Trade Mission to Ethiopia will take place, organised by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO), the agricultural team of the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Ethiopia, and Dutch Greenhouse Delta. We are honoured to lead this mission, connecting Dutch companies to key opportunities and projects on the ground.

Why this mission matters?

Ethiopia is rapidly modernizing its horticultural sector, offering exciting opportunities in greenhouse cultivation, irrigation, and exports to the Gulf. The program is designed to connect Dutch companies with concrete projects and investment opportunities, including company visits, matchmaking sessions, and a visit to HortiFlora, Ethiopia’s leading international horticultural trade fair.

Mission focus areas include:
▪️ Greenhouse and covered cultivation solutions
▪️ Greenhouse technology and climate systems
▪️ Water and energy solutions for horticulture
▪️ Logistics and cold chain development
▪️ Knowledge transfer and capacity building
▪️ Sustainable production of food, flowers, and ornamental plants

Dutch Greenhouse Delta warmly invites agribusinesses, technology providers and solution partners to join this mission and strengthen the strategic position of Dutch horticulture in East Africa.
