Discover why intra-Africa trade is extremely crucial for
promoting economies, leveraging the continent's vast resources (population,
arable land), and scaling up economic growth. We tackle the challenges faced by
small producers in accessing export markets due to structural constraints,
costly undertakings, and infrastructure gaps. The series calls for the removal
of red tape, significant investment in physical and digital infrastructure,
stable regulatory frameworks, and addressing corruption to attract investors
and foster seamless trade within the continent. This episode underscores the
powerful truth that "trade is better than aid" for empowering
communities and building a thriving, ethical, and sustainable future for
Africa. We also highlight the importance of succession planning and supporting
the youth in agriculture, alongside the rapid implementation of initiatives
like the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA).
