Background of Agroprodmash
In the mid-1990s, Russia saw an urgent need to develop domestic food production. Thus, the industry needed advanced high-tech equipment and machinery. Agroprodmash was launched by EXPOCENTRE in 1996 to become a timely response to this urgent request of the food processing industry. More than 300 companies participated in the first edition of the show. Every year it has grown and developed, and over three decades it has become the best platform for solving practical production problems and studying promising trends in the food industry.
In the year of its 30th anniversary, Agroprodmash welcomes 853 companies from 22 countries. Despite the challenges of 2025, EXPOCENTRE has once again managed to create a large-scale and rich showcase of equipment and machinery, some of it in operation. The show offers solutions for all branches of the food industry from ingredients to equipment for full-cycle of production, as well as spare parts and accessories.
Agroprodmash was recognized as the best exhibition in Russia in all nominations in the Food Industry: Equipment and Ingredients category (according to the Russian National Exhibition Rating).
The high level of matching between demand (the requests that visitors come with) and supply (the display) explains the steady professional interest in the show.
Anton Alikhanov, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation:
“Agroprodmash is the largest trade show of mechanical engineering for the food processing industry. Over the years, the show has become a key platform for demonstrating the latest equipment, innovative engineering solutions, and achievements of Russian manufacturers.”
Features of the 2025 edition
Maxim Fateev, Director General, EXPOCENTRE AO:
“The anniversary edition of Agroprodmash is a show of solutions ‘in operation’. At the new venue, we have maintained a clear structure and at the same time expanded the opportunities for demonstrating equipment. Our goal is for engineers and technologists to have a complete set of tools to upgrade production facilities here and now.”
This year, Agroprodmash will take place at an alternative venue for the first time: the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre. But the show will retain its usual logic of product sectors:
- Hall 15: equipment for processing meat, poultry, fish; casings; refrigerating and freezing equipment
- Hall 14: packaging solutions; automation; storage, weighing and measuring equipment; sanitation and hygiene; food safety; waste recycling; accessories
- Hall 13: confectionery and bakery equipment; equipment for the production of dairy products, ice cream; bottling and beverage production; processing of vegetables and fruit
- Hall 18 (Level 3): ingredients
The new venue has expanded the demonstration opportunities: major players have increased their stand area, and new exhibitors have joined the display.
The visitors will enjoy new services, free parking and a well-developed catering infrastructure.
Show highlights
APM MeatTech is one of the largest sectors of Agroprodmash. This year it brings together 128 participants, which is 5% more than in 2024. In recent years, it has demonstrated a significant increase in the positions of domestic equipment manufacturers and engineering companies. In addition, the number of companies from China has also significantly increased. At the same time, the showcase includes products from leading global brands. Thus, Agroprdmash 2025 once again becomes a place of concentration of production experience, advanced know-how and promising ideas for implementation in meat processing plants.
APM Packaging demonstrates an increase in the area of stands and the number of pieces of equipment on display. One of the reasons is the expansion of partnership between Russian and Chinese manufacturers. More than 150 companies from Russia, Belarus, China, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia, Switzerland, and Turkiye show packaging equipment and materials for the food industry at Agroprodmash 2025.
Agroprodmash demonstrates a wide range of robots and applied automated solutions. They include collaborative robots, robotic modules and systems for processing raw materials and manufacturing finished products, depanners and stacker robots, robotic complexes for automating packaging processes, palletizing robots, and warehouse robots.
APM Ingredients gained 14% compared to 2024 (111 participants). Ingredients and functional mixtures for meat products are still dominant. However, in recent years, the sector has expanded its product range for dairy, confectionery products, and beverages. This year, there will be presentations of Russian innovative biotechnological solutions for food ingredients, including innovative ingredients for production of healthy food that has passed clinical trials.
APM Bakery and APM SweetTech (about 100 companies) offer the widest range of products for confectionery and bakery production. Masterclasses and presentations of equipment in operation will add to the show’s great atmosphere.
The number of participants has also increased significantly in the dairy and beverage equipment sectors APM DairyTech, APM Bottling and APM DrinkMash. This year they welcome more than 130 companies (10%+ to 2024). The key to the growth of the dairy sector is the high relevance of the technological and technical agenda of the show.
APM Refrigeration has multiplied its figures. A major part of the showcase is made up of companies involved in the design of refrigeration systems, supply of equipment, as well as its installation, commissioning and subsequent maintenance. The exhibition also presents manufacturers of compressor units, heat exchangers, automation systems for refrigeration equipment, manufacturers of equipment for the construction of vegetable storages, refrigerating chambers, and storage facilities.
APM Automation Solutions demonstrates sustainable development, meeting the steadily growing demand for solutions for automation, digitalization, robotics, and software. It has grown more than twice in three years. This year, 65 companies from Russia, Belarus, China and South Korea will present their solutions.
The sectors of sanitation, food safety, and fruit and vegetable processing equipment have also grown.
Key topics and trends
The show has always reflected the industry’s priorities. The anniversary edition is no exception. This year it focuses on technological sovereignty, product quality and safety, as well as automation and robotics for food production.
