The 48th edition of the Dar es Salaam International Fair (DITF) will be held from June 28 to July 13, 2024, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The DITF, organized annually by the Tanzania Trade Development Authority (TanTrade) in collaboration with both public and private sectors, provides a platform for traders and service providers from Kenya and beyond to showcase their products. Over the years, the DITF has become a significant event for local and international businesses, serving as a gateway for trade and investment in Tanzania and its neighboring countries. The event facilitates access to markets in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe, and Botswana. The fair continues to attract a growing number of participants each year.

In 2023, over 3,500 local companies and 200 foreign companies from 26 countries participated, drawing approximately 300,000 visitors. The event provides a forum for business exchange and has proven profitable for participants. The 48th DITF, themed “Tanzania: Your Best Destination for Trade and Investment,” aims to open doors for African and international communities to access the markets of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and the East African Community (EAC), especially with the Africa Continental Free Trade Area's Guided Trade Initiative in place. Participants in this year’s DITF will include private industrial companies, sector associations, financial institutions, ministries, international development organizations, embassies, and media outlets.

The trade fair will showcase a wide range of products, including agricultural goods, foodstuffs, textiles, manufactured products, furniture, construction materials, automobiles, electrical goods, chemicals, cosmetics, timber, trade services, engineering products, machinery, electronics, software, and handicrafts. More than 200 foreign companies from over 26 countries and over 4,000 local companies are expected to attend the 48th edition, offering exhibitors an opportunity to demonstrate their products, services, and technologies to new markets.
