ABOUT THE AFRICAN FOOD SAFETY SUMMITS
Poor quality and unsafe agricultural and processed food products are some of the most critical issues in Africa’s quest to provide adequate, nutritious, and safe food to its growing population.
They also negatively affect the continent’s ability to boost consumer health and hinder the realizations and growth of local, regional, and international trade – making the continent one of the most vulnerable to hunger, food-borne illnesses and death, trade restrictions, and loss of economic and social potential.
The Africa Food Safety Summits are Africa’s premier and largest international food safety, quality, and systems conferences and exhibitions.
The Summits bring together regional and global experts and stakeholders to share the latest trends in nutrition, food security, science, and technology; regulations, standards, and compliance; operations and sustainable adoption of safe practices and technologies in Africa's agriculture and food value chain.
Held in physical and virtual format since 2021, the Summits aim at providing a pan-African platform where key decision makers can converge, in a number of locations across Africa, to network, learn and trade, as they seek solutions to Africa’s unique food and agriculture sector challenges.
The Summits brings together investors, managers, and professionals in private, public, academic, and NGO/development organizations from across Africa and the World.
