Agriculture

Agriculture is the backbone of the African economy, employing over 60% of the continent’s workforce and contributing significantly to GDP. It plays a crucial role in ensuring food security, reducing poverty, and driving rural development while offering vast potential for export growth and value-added industries.

Rendeavour cities offer unparalleled opportunities for the agriculture industry, by helping them to de-risk investments with access to state-of-the-art infrastructure, including cold storage, distribution networks, sustainable urban planning and efficient regulatory frameworks. 

For example, Ecom Agroindustrial Corporation (owner of Dormans) established its global headquarters at the Tatu Industrial Park in Tatu City, Kenya, in 2015 to consolidate its operations and support its growth in the coffee sector. The Tatu City location provides Dormans with a strategic gateway to East Africa and the world, allowing them to expand their coffee roasting, processing, and trading facilities.
