Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa witnessing a diversification from an oil based economy to an agrofood based economy. The goal of the Agricultural Transformation Agenda (ATA), launched in 2012, an initiative of the Federal Ministry of Agricultural and Rural Development, is to build commodity value chains and requiring the institutions to unlock Nigeria's huge agricultural potentials with the targeted outcome such as to add 20 million tons of food to the domestic food supply by 2015.
Africa is the next destination and the rising continent. The 1st International Trade Show agrofood & plastprintpack Nigeria could not have come at a better time. We're looking forward to participating at agrofood & plastprintpack Nigeria 2015."
