Tunisia in the heart of Nairobi : a celebration of women's entrepreneurship and cross-Border collaboration

NAIROBI, Kenya – From June 16th to 18th, the Radisson Blu, Arboretum in Nairobi played host to the Tunisian Food & Handcrafts Expo 2025, an event that truly embodied the spirit of connecting continents, one handshake at a time. This vibrant expo provided a significant platform for Tunisian women entrepreneurs from the CNFCE-the COMFWB Tunisia Chapter to showcase and sell their diverse products and services.

Beyond commerce, the expo fostered invaluable connections, bringing together Tunisian businesswomen with their Kenyan counterparts from FOWEK, the COMFWB Kenya Chapter. Attendees had the unique opportunity to explore authentic Tunisian products, enjoy engaging live cooking demonstrations, and most importantly, connect with women-led businesses from both nations in a dynamic exchange of trade and culture.

A highlight of the event was an inspiring B2B session where FOWEK welcomed delegates from COMFWB Tunisia. This gathering served as a powerful testament to the impact of collaboration, featuring impressive product showcases and a high-energy speed networking session that paved the way for exciting new cross-border ventures.

The expo represented a vital economic and commercial opportunity for both FOWEK, the COMFWB Kenya Chapter, and the CNFCE, the COMFWB Tunisia Chapter, to encourage women entrepreneurs to build businesses, celebrate culture, and collectively create new opportunities.

FOWEK extended its sincere gratitude to the talented exhibitors whose passion for their handcrafted goods and local delicacies enriched the atmosphere and beautifully showcased the vibrant spirit of entrepreneurship. Special thanks were also extended to COMFWB Tunisia for their valuable participation and to Madam Leila Belkhiria,  COMFWB Tunisia Chairperson and COMFWB Vice Chairperson, whose exceptional leadership in bridging connections continues to foster a stronger network for women in business across AFRICA
