Market Access Africa

A global forum for food and agriculture buyers and sellers

MARKET ACCESS

Africa (MAA) is the global meeting place for food and agriculture buyers and sellers – promoting African food and agriculture commodities, scaling up processing, development of robust supply chains as well as tailor-made financial schemes – while providing opportunities to access new and existing markets in order to boost companies’ bottom lines.

Organised by the African Agri Council (AAC) in partnership with African governments and leading agribusinesses, MAA will provide a global platform for stakeholders to identify the latest technologies that will raise the continent’s food and agricultural productivity, link to trading services and discuss policy reforms to curb Africa’s annual import bill.

MAA connects the entire food and agriculture value chain with a focus on market access. We need to harness the latest technologies, apply the right policies and raise the continent’s food and agricultural productivity to curb its annual import bill. • Connect agri producers with exporters and buyers to expand into new markets to impact companies’ bottom lines • Connect food producers and processors with trade financiers, banks and impact investors to increase their turnover and get the right financial partners • Connect exporters and buyers to reliable commodity suppliers therefore creating an actual market place • Maximise profit across the agri-food value chain by connecting demand to suppliers • Value Chain Connect – plug and integrate African agribusinesses to regional and international value chains
