Uganda Shines on Global Stage: Portrait Country at World of Coffee 2026 | Responsible Tourism Insights

Uganda is making headlines in the global specialty coffee scene. The East African country has been officially selected as the Portrait Country for the prestigious World of Coffee Brussels 2026, Europe’s largest specialty coffee trade event.

This recognition puts Uganda’s world-class coffee beverage in the spotlight and offers exciting opportunities for travelers seeking authentic, immersive experiences.

Scheduled for 25^th – 27^th June 2026 at Brussels Expo, the event will feature Uganda prominently with a dedicated booth, cupping sessions, cultural showcases, and high-level networking.

This platform highlights Uganda’s journey “From Soil to Soul,” celebrating the deep cultural connection between its people and its renowned coffee.

Record-Breaking Coffee Success Driving Tourism Interest

Uganda, now Africa’s leading coffee exporter, achieved remarkable results with 8.4 million bags exported in the last reported period, generating approximately $2.4 billion.

This surge underscores the quality focus and growing international demand for Ugandan Arabica and Robusta varieties.

For travel enthusiasts, this news translates into more opportunities to experience Uganda’s coffee culture firsthand.

From farm visits and bean-to-cup tours near Kampala and Entebbe to combining coffee experiences with wildlife adventures, the country is positioning itself as a premier destination for sustainable, flavor-rich journeys.
