Uzbekistan’s Dedicated Platform for Packaging and Retail Solutions
InterPackExpo is Uzbekistan’s leading international exhibition dedicated to the packaging industry, including packaging equipment, materials, finished packaging, labeling, and printing technologies. Held annually in Tashkent, it serves as a specialized business platform for manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors seeking to expand their reach across the Central Asian packaging market.
Event Overview
The 9th International InterPackExpo-2026 is scheduled for November 17–19, 2026, at the Uzexpocentre NEC in Tashkent. The exhibition is organized by International Expo Group (IEG Uzbekistan).
InterPackExpo is co-located with UzAgroExpo (agriculture) and UzProdExpo (food industry), creating a comprehensive platform that spans the entire production cycle — from agricultural raw materials through food processing to final packaging and delivery to consumers.
Scale and Participation
According to recent edition data, InterPackExpo 2026 is expected to occupy an exhibition area of 12,000 square meters, with approximately 259 exhibitors and 10,500 professional visitors. These figures reflect the combined scale of the co-located events.
The 2025 edition of the three co-located exhibitions brought together over 120 companies from 13 countries, including China, Russia, Belarus, India, and Indonesia.

Packaging Materials and Containers: Finished packaging, packaging materials, containers, and packaging consumables. This includes solutions for food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and industrial goods.

Market Context
Uzbekistan’s packaging market is experiencing steady growth driven by urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and increased demand for packaged consumer goods. The consumer packaging sector serves end-user industries including food, beverages, pharmaceuticals and healthcare, cosmetics, and household care.
The food sector represents a particularly significant driver, given Uzbekistan’s position as a major producer of fruits, vegetables, and agricultural products. With only a fraction of agricultural output currently processed domestically, there is substantial demand for packaging solutions that support food processing, preservation, and export.
The country’s strategic location in Central Asia, combined with improving logistics infrastructure and trade corridors, makes it an increasingly attractive market for international packaging suppliers seeking regional distribution opportunities.
Why It Matters
For international companies, InterPackExpo provides a focused entry point into Uzbekistan’s expanding packaging market. The exhibition attracts professionals from food processing, retail, logistics, and manufacturing sectors, offering exhibitors the opportunity to present their products to a targeted audience of potential buyers and partners.
The co-location with UzAgroExpo and UzProdExpo creates natural synergies for companies operating across the agricultural, food processing, and packaging value chains. Visitors to one exhibition can easily access the others, maximizing business development opportunities.
For local businesses, the event offers access to global suppliers of packaging equipment, materials, and technologies that support the modernization of Uzbekistan’s food and consumer goods industries.
