Boosting Organic Trade in Africa - Shea

IFOAM – Organics International coordinated a market analysis and recommended interventions to boost organic trade in Africa, conducted by ProFound and Organics & Development.

The market briefs provide information about organic production, consumption and trade in and with Africa. They showcase the organic market's potential in terms of integrity, growth and development aspects such as food and nutrition security and the possibilities for setting-up local/regional organic trade fairs.

These analyses aim at:

  1. Developing a comprehensive understanding of markets and consumption patterns for organic products within Africa, and from Africa to other markets; and 
  2. Having available recommended intervention options for actors and decision-makers to strengthen the organic market and trade based on the analysis and interpretation of the information received in the first step.
