Ukraine’s Presence at SIAL Paris 2026
Ukraine’s food and wine producers are actively participating in the SIAL Paris 2026 exhibition held in Paris. This significant event offers valuable opportunities to establish international business connections, attract new buyers, and boost export potential. The Ukrainian national pavilion is organized by the public association UKRSADVYNPROM, with support from multiple Ukrainian ministries and international organizations.
The pavilion features 10 domestic manufacturers involved in import, distribution, and retail network representation. Oversight of the pavilion is provided by the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine alongside the Ministry of Economy and Environment of Ukraine. The exhibition receives backing from the International Trade Centre Ukraine (ITC) as part of the EU4Business initiative funded by the European Union. Additional assistance comes from Switzerland through the GQSP Ukraine project implemented by UNIDO, as well as support from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO Ukraine) and the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
The Role of Global Partnerships
The event’s information partner is the Entrepreneurship and Export Development Office, a national initiative under Diia.Business. Ukraine’s participation at SIAL Paris 2026 highlights the critical role of international collaboration in advancing the country’s agricultural products on the global stage.
As one of the world’s largest food industry exhibitions, SIAL Paris serves as a key platform for Ukrainian producers to increase export growth, enhance global brand recognition, and strengthen trade relationships with international partners. This involvement reflects Ukraine’s ongoing efforts to integrate into global trade networks, a priority especially relevant amid today’s geopolitical and economic challenges.
