WorldFood Moscow 2026, one of the leading international trade fairs dedicated to the food and drink industry, will bring together buyers, distributors, importers and professionals from different markets this week. The event will showcase Brazilian products and solutions, reinforcing the industry’s internationalisation strategy and expanding trade opportunities with Russia and other Eurasian markets.
With a diverse portfolio, the national pavilion brings together brands from different segments of the food supply chain, showcasing products and ingredients that reflect the variety, quality, potential and capacity for innovation of the Brazilian industry.
Among the participants are Abufari Amazonian, Açaí Town, Açaí Super Fruta, ALB Brasil, Allores Coffee, Baggio Coffee, Beatrice Peanuts, Biospicefoods, Brazilian Drinks, Calixto Foods, GBC Foods, JBC Representações, Metalúrgica Venâncio, Prisma International, Rausher and Stefenoni, as well as ApexBrasil, which is taking part in the trade promotion initiative.
The diversity of exhibitors covers categories such as coffee, açaí, peanuts, beverages, foodstuffs, ingredients and equipment for the food service sector and the food industry. Their joint presence creates an important showcase for products developed in Brazil and facilitates contact with potential international buyers, distributors and trading partners.
“We visit Moscow every February, but this time we came to WorldFood Moscow 2025 without knowing exactly what to expect from the Russian market. We left having secured several contracts with clients from Russia and the wider region whilst the fair was still underway. That was enough for us to decide to return in 2026. Access to qualified buyers at a single event is difficult to replicate in any other way,” says Pablo Rivera, CEO of Beatrice Peanuts.
For the ITE Group, organiser of WorldFood Moscow, the country’s presence reinforces the trade fair’s importance as a meeting point for suppliers and buyers from different regions. The event offers participating brands the opportunity to present their products directly to industry professionals, prospect for new clients, identify trends and establish long-term commercial relationships.
The initiative also aligns with the drive to diversify export markets, the internationalisation of the domestic industry and the search for new markets for products and solutions developed in the country. Against this backdrop, WorldFood Moscow represents a strategic platform for companies wishing to understand the demands of the Russian market, expand their network of contacts and explore opportunities in different countries across the region.
By bringing together companies of different sizes and from different sectors within the same business environment, Brazil’s presence at the fair helps to strengthen the country’s image as a competitive, diversified supplier, well-prepared to meet the demands of the international market.
“It is a pleasure to welcome Brazil back to WorldFood Moscow. Participation in this edition reinforces the fair’s international character and broadens the scope for dialogue and business between different markets. We hope that the event will help to strengthen trade relations with Russia and create new opportunities across the region,” says Dmitry Zavgorodniy, CEO of ITE Group.
