Agribusiness and economic development
Agribusiness represents one of the most powerful engines of economic transformation in Africa. With a rapidly growing population, expanding urban markets and vast arable land, the agribusiness sector offers immense potential for job creation, added value and GDP growth. Yet it remains under-exploited due to fragmented value chains, low productivity and a lack of industrial transformation.
At Eschkol Agroindustrieswe see agribusiness not as a subsistence activity, but as a fundamental pillar of Africa's modern economic architecture.
Our Approach
Eschkol operates across the entire agro-industrial value chain, from primary production to processing, packaging and international distribution. We combine modern agricultural techniques, industrial innovation and logistics infrastructure to transform raw materials into high value-added, export-ready products.
Our integrated model generates opportunities across the entire ecosystem: we develop agro-industrial zones, encourage the clustering of SMEs, and set up inclusive market systems to benefit young people, women and rural entrepreneurs. We also work with governments to align our activities with national development plans and industrialization strategies.
Our impact
Eschkol's work generates multiplier effects on local and national economies. By transforming agriculture into a commercially viable, technology-based sector, we help to reduce rural poverty, create jobs and stimulate entrepreneurship.
Our agro-industrial platforms attract private investment, strengthen food sovereignty and accelerate the structural transformation of African economies. Every cultivated hectare becomes a breeding ground for prosperity, resilience and inclusive growth.
