The 2018 edition of the Africa Food Awards put the Awards on the map, and helped introduce the Awards to a bigger audience, cementing the reputation of the event as Africa’s most prestigious food industry event, on the second year of hosting!

With more than 500 industry leaders attending the Awards ceremony from across Eastern, Central and Southern Africa, more than 60 entries were received for the final judgement process from across the region.

The event saw the introduction of the New Plant of the Year, New Product of the Year and the Initiatives of the Year categories, opening the opportunity for companies to compete for a chance to win the highly-coveted accolades.
