  • The SDGs seek to eradicate poverty, safeguard the environment, and guarantee everyone’s prosperity.
  • In the upcoming 18 to 24 months, the facility is anticipated to start producing.

The facility will contribute to the achievement of SDGs 2 and 8, “Zero Hunger,” through the development of jobs and wealth. The growth of the African food processing sector in recent years has been slow, with an inefficient use of human resources and low efficiency.

According to a recent World Bank report, African farmers and agribusinesses could develop a trillion-dollar food market by 2030 if they have access to more funding, electricity, better technology, and irrigated land to grow high-value nutritious foods. They could also do this if African governments can collaborate more closely with agribusinesses to feed the continent’s rapidly expanding urban population.

The Times claims that the 43-year-old co-founded Tingo Mobile, an agri-fintech business with a mission to support African farmers.
