Organized byLegacy ExhibitionsCosmetica
Algiers·Cosmetics
Cosmetica was born in 2022 with a simple idea: give the cosmetics industry in Algeria a trade show of its own. It brings the whole chain under one roof, from ingredients and fragrance to packaging, machinery and finished brands, so that a manufacturer can meet its suppliers and its distributors in the same aisle. By its third edition it was presenting itself as the largest cosmetics show in Africa. The 2024 edition took place in Pavilion A at SAFEX; from 2025 the show moved to the Pavillon Central, where the 2027 edition is already set for January.

CosmeOran
Oran·Beauty and cosmetics
CosmeOran is Cosmetica’s sister show, run by the same team, and it takes the beauty industry to western Algeria. Every spring it fills the Mohamed Benahmed convention centre in Oran with Algerian makers of perfume, cosmetics and hair care, along with the distributors and buyers of the whole region. Its purpose is stated plainly: put local production forward and help exhibitors sign with the buyers they meet there. Workshops on trends and techniques run alongside the stands, and the doors stay open from morning until late in the evening.

Algiers·Information and communication technologies
Every April, the ICT Africa Summit brings the continent’s digital industry to Algiers for three days, under the banner “Unlocking Digital Horizons”. Technology companies, operators and startups exhibit next to a conference programme on how digital can drive growth and inclusion across Africa. The summit is built as a set of thematic forums, among them e-government, energy, health and pharma, and airport technology, so that each audience follows its own track. It is held under the patronage of several ministries, and Algérie Télécom was official sponsor of the 2025 edition.

Algiers·E-commerce and online services
ECSEL Expo is the e-commerce and online services show of Algiers, and it bills itself as the biggest in Africa. For four days in October 2025, the Pavillon Central of SAFEX gathered online sellers, marketplaces, delivery and logistics companies, and the electronic payment players that make the whole chain work. Talks and demonstrations ran alongside the stands, around the three pillars of the trade: payment, logistics and digital services. The aim is plain: help a young, fast-growing market find its partners in one place.
Organized byFirst EventsBabyHealth Expo
Algiers·Maternal and child health
BabyHealth Expo was the first international show in Algeria dedicated to the health and well-being of mothers, babies and young children. In September 2025 it brought the whole field together in the Ahaggar pavilion at SAFEX: health professionals, equipment makers and the brands that serve young families. Its scientific programme was built with national medical societies in neonatal medicine, gynaecology and obstetrics, paediatric surgery and reproductive medicine, along with the Red Crescent. One idea runs through it, printed on its banner: tomorrow’s health starts today.

Algiers·Training, skills and digital solutions
FormaTech Expo connects the people who train with the people who hire. Schools and training centres present their programmes, companies say which skills they are missing, and startups show the tools that are changing how people learn and work. Its line, printed on the banner, sums it up: training for innovation, innovation for transformation. The first edition took place in Algiers in 2025. The second opens on 12 October 2026 in Pavilion A at SAFEX, under the theme “Transform skills to reinvent professions”, and the organizers plan editions in other African countries.

Entry is free on registration, so that students, developers and founders can all come.
