About 60% of the world’s arable land is in Africa and it has billions of rands in investment potential.
According to President of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Dr Akinwumi Adesina, "Africa represents a massive business opportunity. Six of the world’s twelve fastest-growing countries are in Africa. With a population of over 1 billion people, consumer spending in Africa is projected to rise from $680 billion in 2008 to $2.2 trillion by 2030. The continent will have the fastest growing youth population in the world by 2030. The size of the African Continental Free Trade Areas is worth $3.3 trillion – the largest free trade zone is since the World Trade Organizations was established. Africa is a huge market. It can no longer be ignored!"
