Connecting global buyers, producers, investors, and logistics pioneers to revolutionize continental food security and agritech commerce under the AfCFTA framework.
The Africa Food and Trade Summit (AFTS) is the continent's premier B2B and public-private dialogue platform established to address critical gaps across agricultural supply chains. With Africa holding over 60% of the world’s uncultivated arable land, the summit addresses structural challenges in regional trade, food production efficiency, and value-added exports.
Driven by the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), AFTS establishes direct pipelines between rural smallholders, commercial agro-industrial giants, international investors, and cold-chain logistics providers to build resilience, optimize cross-border movement, and drastically eliminate trade bottlenecks.
