About

The AGTS is a premier, high-level, international grain industry conference that convenes business leaders, policymakers and other critical stakeholders from across Africa and beyond for discussions about key issues and emerging trends pertinent to the grain sector. The Summit provides cutting edge insights into trends and provokes strategic, evidence-based discussions on the grain sector from national, regional, continental and global viewpoints, thus helping to inform the strategic direction of the African grain sector.

Every two years, EAGC and its partners hold the AGTS as their main event for promoting policy improvements for the African grain industry. About 300 high-level grain industry players generally attend the summit from across Africa and beyond to help set the continent’s grain industry’s business and development strategy. Usually, the Head of State of the host nation graces the event, and after the Summit, resolutions are delivered to the Head of State for further guidance.
