Africa Eats is a Mauritius-based investment holding company that focuses on investing in and accelerating the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the food and agriculture sector across Sub-Saharan Africa. The company aims to enhance food security and boost incomes for smallholder farmers by minimizing post-harvest losses and increasing efficiency within value chains. Africa Eats operates in eight African countries: Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Malawi, Zambia, and Ghana.
Established in 2020, Africa Eats is modeled after Berkshire Hathaway Inc., focusing on building a diversified portfolio of investments held in perpetuity. The company has demonstrated significant growth, with a compound annual revenue growth rate of 52% between 2014 and 2023. This growth is attributed to its unique business model, which includes providing capital investments and operational support to scalable businesses addressing food insecurity and poverty.
In December 2024, Africa Eats was listed on the High-Growth Segment of the Main Market of the Stock Exchange of Mauritius, marking a significant milestone in its journey. The company's portfolio includes companies such as East Africa Foods (Tanzania), Paniel Meat Processing (Rwanda), Truk Rwanda, Central Park Bees (Tanzania), Geossy (Uganda), and Ziweto Enterprises (Malawi). These investments reflect Africa Eats' commitment to fostering sustainable growth and development within the African agribusiness sector.
