Astana Flora Expo 2027

7–9 April 2027 | EXPO International Exhibition Center, Astana, Kazakhstan

Astana Flora Expo is an international exhibition for floriculture and the green industry. Its scope connects flowers and plants, greenhouse and garden-centre equipment, flower-business logistics, floristry and design, horticulture, and country-house and landscape design. It is designed around professional participation: growers, suppliers, buyers, florists, retailers and landscape specialists can use the exhibition to compare products, explore technical approaches and identify useful business conversations.

Astana Flora Expo at a glance

The next edition’s dates and venue are confirmed. The detailed 2027 exhibitor and programme information should be checked with the organiser as it is released.

Why Astana Flora Expo matters

See a connected green-industry supply chain

The event spans more than cut flowers. Its published sections link plant production and floral products with greenhouse technologies, logistics, garden-centre activity, horticulture and landscape design. This makes it relevant to businesses looking across connected stages of production, supply and sale.

Compare products and technical approaches

Growers, buyers and distributors can use a focused exhibition visit to compare product ranges and discuss specifications, cultivation conditions, handling and supply requirements directly with participating companies. Florists and designers can explore the materials and professional ideas relevant to their work.

Build a purposeful business programme

The organiser’s 2026 summary listed 61 business events, more than 50 professional speakers and 912 business-programme attendees. Those figures describe the previous edition, not a confirmed 2027 programme. The 2026 event report also describes industry sessions, matchmaking formats, floristry demonstrations and master classes.

• More than 220 participating companies, 2026: organiser-reported in the 2026 results release.
• Over 20 countries, 2026: organiser-reported international exhibitor reach.
• 4,156 professional visitors, 2026: organiser-reported attendance.
• 100 cut-flower companies and 45 horticulture companies, 2026: counts in the organiser’s edition summary; these are sector figures and should not be added together as a total.

The published scale indicates a regional professional platform with international supplier participation; it can support focused sourcing and market conversations, but visitors should set their own target list and meeting goals.

Florists and professionals from the floral sector are named in the previous edition’s visitor profile; the 2026 programme included floral demonstrations and master classes.

Roles to prioritise: owners and buyers, growers and production managers, greenhouse engineers, import and distribution managers, retail category managers, florists, landscape designers and horticulture specialists.

Why visit Astana Flora Expo?

1. Compare suppliers: assess flower, plant, growing and logistics offers against your real purchasing requirements.
2. Review cultivation technology: ask greenhouse and equipment providers about operating conditions, service and suitability for your production plans.
3. Explore new sourcing options: compare varieties, planting materials and supplier capabilities before building a shortlist.
4. Evaluate distribution possibilities: discuss how products are handled, stored and moved, especially where freshness and timing matter.
5. Develop a landscape or garden-centre project: review plants, horticulture products, equipment and design services relevant to a defined brief.
6. Learn from the professional programme: use the 2026 programme as evidence of the event’s previous format, then check the 2027 agenda when published.
7. Meet potential business counterparts: prepare specific questions and a clear next step for each supplier, buyer or partner conversation.

Why exhibit at Astana Flora Expo?

The event is relevant to flower and plant producers, international suppliers, exporters, greenhouse operators, equipment and technology providers, logistics companies, floristry businesses, horticulture brands and landscape-service companies. The organiser’s 2026 results report says the exhibition brought together companies from more than 20 countries and describes buyers, retailers, producers and suppliers among its professional community.

Exhibiting may help a company present a new range, meet potential buyers and distributors, compare market response, explain product requirements face to face, or develop relationships with regional partners. The value depends on selecting the right visitor groups and preparing a clear offer; participation does not guarantee leads or sales.

Before committing, establish which product categories and visitor groups the 2027 edition will attract, and assess distribution, after-sales support, cold-chain handling, import procedures and applicable plant-health or product requirements for your own goods. Current regulatory conditions must be checked with the relevant authorities before shipment or market entry.

The official event page provides a request-for-participation form for companies interested in exhibiting. ilikevents can assist with registration and organiser coordination, stand planning, booth design, staffing, interpretation and business-meeting preparation.

What makes Astana Flora Expo distinctive?

Its published scope connects the flower trade with green-industry production, greenhouse and garden-centre technologies, logistics, floristry, horticulture and landscape design. That combination can help visitors consider commercial links between growing, handling, design and distribution rather than viewing flowers as a standalone retail product.

In 2026, the organiser reported that Grow Expo Astana was held at the venue alongside Flora Expo Astana, with a focus on greenhouse technologies and plant cultivation. This is a previous-edition example only; do not assume that the same co-located event or programme will return in 2027 unless the organiser confirms it.

The 2026 report also describes a business programme, matchmaking formats, floristry shows, the Open Kazakhstan Competition “Color of Asia – 2026”, demonstrations and master classes. These provide examples of the event’s earlier professional and practical formats, not a promise about the next edition.

How to prepare before Astana Flora Expo

1. Define the decision you need to make

Choose a specific objective: shortlist flower suppliers, compare greenhouse systems, identify a distributor, source planting material, or develop a landscape project. Turn it into a short list of questions and a clear next action.

2. Build a target-company list

When the organiser publishes the 2027 exhibitor information, group relevant companies by product and priority. Mark A for essential meetings, B for useful conversations and C for exploratory visits. If the list is not yet available, prepare your categories first and check the organiser’s event page again before travelling.

3. Prepare technical and commercial questions

• Which varieties, plant sizes or planting materials are available, and in which seasons?
• What are the minimum order quantities, lead times and supply terms?
• How are cut flowers and plants packed, temperature-managed and transported?
• What climate, irrigation, lighting and ventilation conditions does the equipment require?
• What installation, maintenance, spare-parts and operator support are available?
• Which growing media, nutrition or plant-care products suit the crops and cultivation system?
• What product documentation, plant-health certificates or conformity requirements should be checked?
• Can the supplier provide references, technical specifications or a sample for evaluation?
• What distribution territory or customer segment is available for a potential partner?

4. Plan meetings and practical arrangements

Request meetings early where the exhibitor offers a contact route, and leave time to compare similar products. Confirm visitor registration, opening hours, venue arrangements and travel requirements with the organiser before making final plans. ilikevents can help structure a visit plan and coordinate business meetings.

How to make the most of the exhibition

Use one concise record for each conversation: Company → product or service → why it fits → evidence or specification → contact → next action. For a greenhouse supplier, for example, record the growing system, climate requirements, capacity, service terms and the follow-up document you need. For a flower supplier, note varieties, seasonality, packaging, cold-chain requirements and delivery terms.

Compare like with like. Separate product quality from logistics, service and commercial terms, and note unanswered questions rather than relying on memory. If the 2027 programme includes sessions or demonstrations, select only those that inform a purchase, production or design decision.

Business programme and practical demonstrations

The 2026 edition included more than 60 business events according to the organiser’s report, with industry forums, expert sessions, practical conferences, market discussions and supplier-buyer meeting formats. The same report describes floristry shows, the “Color of Asia – 2026” competition, demonstrations and master classes. Treat these as examples of the previous edition. Check the next edition’s published programme for confirmed sessions, speakers and activities before planning your schedule.

Networking at Astana Flora Expo

Prepare a short introduction that explains your business, the products or services you need, your target market and the type of relationship you are seeking. Bring a concise company profile and the relevant specifications for flowers, greenhouse systems, logistics or landscape projects. Close each useful conversation by agreeing what information should be exchanged and when you will follow up.

Astana Flora Expo visitor profile and business opportunities

These priorities connect the organiser’s published visitor groups and thematic sectors; use your own project or purchasing brief to decide which conversations matter most.

One day or several days at Astana Flora Expo?

The exhibition runs for three days. A focused one-day visit may suit a visitor with a short, prioritised supplier list. Allow more time if you need to compare several product groups, attend relevant programme sessions, or hold meetings across flowers, greenhouse technologies and landscape products. Confirm the final opening hours and programme before arranging your schedule.

After Astana Flora Expo: turn conversations into decisions

Within a day or two, sort contacts into three groups: A — immediate evaluation for a live purchasing or project need; B — potential for a future range, partnership or investment; and C — market intelligence for a supplier or trend to monitor. Send each contact a short follow-up that recalls the product discussed and asks for the specific information needed.

For flower and plant sourcing, request current availability, varieties, packaging, minimum quantities, delivery timing and handling conditions. For greenhouse equipment, collect system specifications, installation requirements, energy and water needs, maintenance arrangements and references. For landscape or garden-centre projects, compare scope, materials, plant suitability and delivery sequence before making a commitment.

Astana Flora Expo visitor checklist

Is Astana Flora Expo worth visiting?

The exhibition is most useful for professionals with a defined interest in flowers and plants, greenhouse production, horticulture, floristry, garden-centre supply, landscape design or related logistics. Its wide subject range can help visitors compare adjacent parts of the green-industry chain, while a prepared target list makes a three-day event easier to use well. A casual walk through the halls is less likely to answer a purchasing or project question than planned supplier conversations and disciplined follow-up.

Plan your Astana Flora Expo visit with purpose

What do you need to discover, compare or decide through direct contact with the floriculture and green-industry market? Set that objective before you arrive, then make every meeting lead to a useful next step.

Discover. Compare. Meet. Decide. Follow up.

Floriculture and greenhouse opportunities in Kazakhstan

Market size and demand

The Astana Times, citing Kazakhstan’s Bureau of National Statistics, reports that the country imported 12,300 tonnes of cut flowers and buds worth US?.5 million in 2024, compared with 8,200 tonnes worth US?.2 million in 2023. This is a cut-flower import indicator, not the total value of Kazakhstan’s floriculture or green-industry market. The same report says flowers came from 53 countries in 2024; Ecuador supplied 6,500 tonnes valued at US?.8 million, while the Netherlands supplied 2,300 tonnes valued at US?.6 million.

• Cut flowers and buds imports: 12,300 tonnes and US?.5 million in 2024; a measure of imported cut-flower trade, not total sector revenue.
• Domestic flower output: 40.3 million flowers harvested in 2024, as reported by The Astana Times from national statistics.
• Greenhouse-grown flower output: 33.4 million flowers in 2024, within the reported domestic harvest.

Market drivers and commercial opportunities

The 2024 trade figures point to a substantial imported cut-flower supply alongside domestic production. The report also records a rise in local output and greenhouse cultivation compared with 2023. These indicators suggest areas for investigation, not guaranteed demand or profitability.

• Cut-flower sourcing and distribution: importers and wholesalers may compare supplier ranges, seasonal availability and cold-chain arrangements; competition, product quality and delivery terms need evaluation.
• Greenhouse production systems: equipment suppliers and growers may explore climate-control, lighting, irrigation and automation needs as local greenhouse output expands; capital cost, operating requirements and technical support are material considerations.
• Planting material and growing inputs: producers may assess bulbs, plants and cultivation products against local crop plans; availability, plant-health requirements and supply timing require checking.
• Post-harvest handling and logistics: distributors may examine storage, packaging and transport solutions for perishable flowers; route reliability and temperature management remain practical constraints.

What this means for exhibitors

Flower suppliers, greenhouse technology companies, horticulture brands and logistics providers could use the market indicators to frame targeted discussions with producers, importers and distributors. They should validate the relevant customer segment, import procedures, product documentation, service needs and landed costs before pursuing a market-entry plan.

What this means for visitors

Buyers may use the exhibition to compare imported flower supply options and handling services, while growers can evaluate equipment and inputs relevant to domestic production. Visitors should verify current trade and plant-health requirements with the appropriate authorities; no specific regulatory rule is asserted here.
