Agribusiness is a term used to describe the enterprises involved in production, processing, and distribution of food for consumer use.
In Africa, agribusiness is responsible for 70% of employment and about 25% of the continent’s GDP. Due to its enormous agricultural potential, the African agribusiness sector is expected to reach $1 trillion by 2030.
Zebu Investment Partners is a pan-African private equity fund with offices in Ghana and South Africa. It was established up to build strong companies in the food value chain and improve food security in Africa.
