The Next Frontier: Marcopolo 360 Leads Pakistani Business Delegation to Ethiopia Expo 2026

An exclusive, curated business opportunity tour recomended by the Ethiopian High Commission.

At Marcopolo 360, we don’t just curate tours; we build strategic bridges to the world’s most promising markets. Following the incredible success of the 5th Pak-Africa Trade Development Conference in Addis Ababa, it’s clear that the “Engage Africa” policy is more than a slogan—it’s a multi-billion dollar opportunity.

Now, building on this momentum and on the direct recommendation of the Ethiopian High Commission in Pakistan, we are proud to announce our flagship business opportunity tour for 2026.

We are assembling an exclusive, high-level delegation of Pakistani business leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs to visit the “Made in Ethiopia Expo 2026”—the nation’s premier industrial and innovation showcase.

This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies.

Why Ethiopia? The New Hub of African Growth

Ethiopia is no longer just the “Land of Origins”; it’s the new hub of African industry and investment. The Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) has already identified Ethiopia as one of the most favorable investment destinations in Africa.

Driven by a government goal to become a “manufacturing powerhouse,” the nation is actively seeking foreign investment, and Pakistani businesses are at the front of the line.

Unlocking Ground-Floor Opportunities for Pakistani Investors

Our delegation will be focused on high-potential, government-backed sectors. Based on our research and trade data, the most immediate opportunities for Pakistani businesses include:

  1. A Landmark Opening in the Financial Sector: In a massive, recent move, Ethiopia is opening its banking sector to foreign investors, allowing up to 49% foreign ownership. This is a time-sensitive opportunity for Pakistani financial institutions, banks, and private equity firms to establish a major presence.
  2. Agribusiness & Food Processing: Ethiopia is an agricultural giant. There is immense demand in Pakistan for its key exports, creating opportunities in:
    • Sourcing: Coffee, tea, ginger, turmeric, soya beans, lentils, and other pulses.
    • Value-Addition: Establishing processing and packaging plants for cotton, sesame, and livestock.
  3. Manufacturing & Textiles: As Ethiopia builds its manufacturing base, there are vast opportunities for joint ventures in textiles, leather goods, and other light manufacturing industries, leveraging Pakistan’s expertise.
  4. Mining & Resources: Ethiopia is rich in resources like gold and gems. We will connect our delegation with the right authorities to explore lucrative opportunities in exploration and extraction.
  5. Energy & Infrastructure: With a growing population, the need for renewable and off-grid energy projects is critical. This is a prime sector for Pakistani engineering and investment firms.
