Trustworthy food production is key to maintaining a successful business
Welcome to the 58th issue of Food Business Africa Magazine.
This edition launches just after our Food Industry Week, where we successfully hosted three events. We began with the Africa Sustainability Symposium at Safari Park in Nairobi and concluded with the Africa Food Awards at the same hotel.
The highlight was the AFMASS Food Expo, which took place at the Sarit Expo Center in Nairobi's Westlands Business District. The events were a resounding success, and we have included a pictorial in the magazine to provide you with a glimpse of how the events unfolded.
Our main feature story is KWV. With a presence in over 100 markets worldwide, the South African-based company is undeniably one of the largest wines and spirits companies in Africa. I invite you to read and discover the company's revitalized energy under the leadership of the newly appointed CEO, John Loomes.
Our startup feature section resurfaces again in this issue, highlighting Amonu Chocolate, a Ghanaian artisanal chocolate company that is striving to promote Ghanaian chocolate on the global stage.
Elsewhere in the magazine, we highlight the dairy industry in zimbabwe and the deliberate efforts the government and private sector players are making to restore the country's former glory as a leading milk exporter in Africa.
We also look at the meat industry in Namibia and current efforts by the state to secure new markets in the East.
With cognition and mood becoming top consumer concerns, companies need to formulate products to meet these needs. We explore some of the top ingredients that would make this possible. We also highlight the latest trends in nitrogen-infused beverages, as well as explore the status of the brewing industry in Africa.
With a host of other insightful news from the food industry, both locally and internationally, we hope that you enjoy your read.
