A Facility to Facilitate the food industry in Africa
The Nest Africa plans to be the region’s collaboration, capacity building and networking platform that supports young enterprises, food companies, sponsors, universities and research institutes and other stakeholders to grow the innovations in the food industry supply chain in Africa
We are seeking support from big corporates, food companies, NGOs and government agencies to build or to lease a facility in Nairobi, Kenya that will serve the needs of the food industry in sub-Saharan Africa.
Our plan is to have the facility in Nairobi operational by 2022, after which we shall be looking at having a similar facility in Central-Southern Africa and eventually, in Western Africa – to enable us to cover some of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa that have the most critical requirements for such a facility.
