Canada’s agribusiness industry is renowned for its high-quality outputs, pristine environment, diverse food offerings, and sustainable practices. Globally, Canada stands as a prime destination for ventures in agriculture, agri-tech, and food products.

The agricultural and agri-food sectors significantly bolster the Canadian economy. While Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada directly supports primary agriculture, food, and beverage processing. The influence of the sector permeates the expansive agri-food system and resonates throughout the entire food supply chain.

Central to Canada’s agricultural triumph is its robust export capability, positioning it as one of the globe’s predominant food exporters. Such prowess presents immense opportunities for international collaboration, especially with Africa. Africa, often hailed as the world’s food basket, attributes approximately 35% of its GDP to agriculture. This sector sustains over half of the continent’s populace. These proportions, considerably surpassing global averages, underscore Africa’s potential.

Africa’s average farm machinery utilization lags, marking it the lowest globally. This gap showcases a ripe opportunity, as numerous enterprises within the continent are actively seeking the advanced agri-tech solutions that Canada’s agriculture sector excels. Recognizing this symbiotic potential, the Afro-Canada Agribusiness Initiative and Global Events Canada present the Agribusiness Expo 2024. This three-day event aims to seamlessly merge Africa’s agricultural realm with North America’s expertise.
