Investment and Trade Facilitation

IMG_0249.HEIC
​Investment opportunities in Africa are endless. Agribusiness in Africa is potentially a multi-trillion-dollar industry but navigating your way through these opportunities can be a daunting task. Effective deal sourcing not only means being able to identify, evaluate, and execute deals that are currently on the market but also being able to track and nurture companies that have yet to achieve your desired parameters for investment.
 
Welcome2Africa International has deep level expertise, experience, and senior-level contacts with agribusiness organizations, agencies, and banks across Africa, which ensures outstanding access to deal flow.
 
We also have a growing global network of a diverse range of private equity and venture capital firms, institutional investors, foundations and endowments, international development institutions, professional service firms, entrepreneurs, academic institutions, and those generally interested in the private sector development of Africa.
 
For our investors, we help to source and vet deals and provide match-making services in accordance with their respective investment/trade criteria. Where necessary we are also able to solicit for co-investors and mobilize an investment consortium. Our goal is to make it easier for investors to establish and expand their investment in Africa. We focus on alleviating ground-level obstacles to investment; hence we source for adequate information that would be necessary for our clients to make informed business/investment decisions.
