This high-level dialogue integrates trade policy alignment, sustainable investment strategies, and supply chain optimization to address the interconnected opportunities of market access, agribusiness development, and resilient supply chains in U.S.-Africa agri-food systems. 

Africa’s agri-food sector, employing over 60% of the continent’s workforce and a major contributor to GDP, holds immense potential for modernization, global integration, and enhanced supply chain efficiency. The U.S., with its advanced technology, capital, and expansive consumer market, offers a complementary partnership. This dialogue aims to bridge these strengths, tackling challenges such as market access barriers, value-chain inefficiencies, supply chain disruptions, and investment gaps to drive equitable, sustainable prosperity and strengthen the agri-food supply chain from production to distribution
