The supply chain disruptions as a result of Covid-19 highlighted the need for the continent to be less dependent on imports for its food requirements. In addition, weakening African currencies and a shortage of US dollars in some countries have made substituting foreign imports with domestic production more attractive. Despite the opportunities, running a successful agribusiness venture involves many potential hurdles, including unreliable raw material supply, financing constraints and foreign exchange headwinds. </span></em><strong><i><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Jaco Maritz</span></i></strong><em><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'> examines the continent’s import substitution prospects and challenges from the perspective of investors and entrepreneurs on the ground.</span></em><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Ethiopia, Africa’s second most populous state, is heavily reliant on imports for value added food products. While the country is a net exporter of agricultural produce, these are mostly unprocessed commodities. The manufacturing sector has grown significantly in recent decades but its share of GDP was just 7.4% in 2019, well below the African average and far from the government’s goal of 17%. Replacing these imported products with locally produced goods presents a significant opportunity for businesspeople and investors, according to Saad Aouad, chief investment officer of 54 Capital, an investment firm with interests in several consumer goods businesses in Ethiopia. He is particularly upbeat about the manufacturing of basic food items such as edible oils, pasta and dairy. Despite rapid economic growth in recent years – Ethiopia’s economy expanded at an average annual rate of 8.7% from 2012 to 2021 – incomes remain low and much of the population cannot afford high-end goods. “We like sectors that are resilient and those sectors are the ones meeting the basic needs of the population,” he says. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Ethiopia has plenty of low-cost labour, an abundance of natural resources and sufficient power-generation capacity. However, aspiring factory bosses can expect to encounter a host of hurdles, including low labour productivity, difficulty in accessing land owing to a lack of co-ordination between federal and regional governments, and power interruptions; familiar obstacles in many African countries.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Likewise, Nigeria annually imports about US$8 billion worth of food and agricultural products – including wheat, fish, brown sugar, food ingredients and consumer oriented foods – many that can be produced domestically. Danladi Verheijen, managing partner of private equity firm Verod Capital, highlights the import substitution of fish as a substantial opportunity, pointing to villages in Norway where the entire economy is based on growing a particular type of fish (stockfish) sold to Nigeria. Trawlers from Southeast Asia also fish in the waters outside Lagos and Accra, process it in their countries and then sell it back into Africa. To capitalise on this, Verod has invested in fish-farming business Shaldag. “It grows fish at over 40 times the density of other local farms by using modern technology in their operations. The company produces processed, smoked catfish under the Shaldag brand. Nigeria imports over $600 million of fish a year, so this investment is an import substitution play,” Verheijin explains. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>In Zambia, Tue Nyboe Andersen, managing director of Lusaka-based Kukula Capital, sees potential for niche food products with minimal competition. The southern African country has limited food processing and many items are imported. As a landlocked country, Zambia has some built-in import barriers; imported items must be transported over long distances, presenting an advantage to local producers. Andersen highlights a company called Meraki that makes cakes and supplies them to big retailers like Shoprite. It has grown rapidly with decent margins because its competition is imported products that are significantly more expensive. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Ghanaian agribusiness company Maphlix has also tapped into the country’s significant agricultural possibilities to replace imports. One of its biggest domestic customers is fast-food chain KFC, which it supplies with tomatoes, lettuce and cabbage. “Our country spends $300 million annually to import tomatoes. Our goal is to claim at least 40% of this local production gap,” reveals managing director Felix Kamassah. Another crop that sells well locally is carrots. “Again, the country has to import it, so there is another opportunity.” In certain categories, African producers will struggle to compete with cheap imports. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>In the case of chicken, Henri de Villeneuve, CEO of COBASA Business Advisory, warns against producing chicken for the domestic market close to the ocean because it could be impacted by imports from Brazil and elsewhere. Instead, poultry operations should be set up away from the coast as high inland transport costs create a barrier to entry for competitors. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Beyond utilising Africa’s agricultural potential to produce food items, import substitution prospects extend to using crops to make industrial products. In 2021, Uganda-based Pura Organic Agro Tech Ltd raised $2.5 million to set up a vertically integrated cassava processing plant for manufacturing tapioca starch. This is used as an adhesive for soft boards and corrugated cardboard boxes as well as for house partitions and wardrobe fittings. The East African region imports almost its entire starch demand from India and Thailand. Pura Organic targets medium- to large-scale industrial companies that manufacture corrugated cardboard and soft boards for construction, which have expressed a preference to use locally sourced starch because of price and availability. It will enable them to procure smaller quantities at a time, freeing up cash flow. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Those able to establish successful local ventures could also grow their market by exporting to neighbouring countries, particularly as the African Continental Free Trade Area gains traction. Jean-Marc Savi de Tové, co-founder of Adiwale Partners, gives the example of a company in Côte d’Ivoire that manufactures soap from crude palm oil. With a competitively priced product, the business became a dominant player and grew its footprint regionally. Today, it generates substantial revenues by selling its soap beyond Côte d’Ivoire in countries such as Mali, Senegal and Togo <o:p></o:p></span></p><h4 style='mso-margin-top-alt:18.7pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:2.5pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;line-height:initial;font-size:1.25rem;-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased'><b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Ensuring sufficient supply of raw material</span></b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></h4><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>54 Capital’s Aouad says the quality of Ethiopia’s agricultural produce is often not ideal for food processing and another reason why so many goods are still imported. “I will give you the example of tomatoes. Ethiopia exports fresh tomatoes but then imports ketchup. That doesn’t make sense because ketchup is relatively easy to produce. So why then? It is because the quality of tomatoes grown in Ethiopia is not good enough to run a profitable ketchup plant,” he explains.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>The farming sector requires intervention to ensure an adequate supply of crops for agri-processing activities. “Ethiopia needs to invite large international farming companies to come to the country and set up commercial farms with modern methods of irrigation and fertilising. This international experience needs to be shared with local smallholder farmers situated around the commercial farms. The produce can then be sold to agri-processors in the city,” says Aouad.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Jerry Parkes, managing director of Ghana-based private equity firm Injaro Investments, also cautions against setting up capex-heavy agri-processing businesses if the supply of raw materials is not guaranteed. “One idea that has come across our desk many times is the production of canned tomatoes or tomato puree. People assume it would be a good business because fresh tomatoes are so ubiquitous and hyper-visible following bumper harvests. However, in many cases, the tomatoes grown locally are the wrong varieties, and yields are maybe a fiftieth or even a hundredth of the yields of competitors in China, the Netherlands or Italy. The processing facilities would require a huge amount of capital, but the supply of tomatoes themselves is not assured.” <o:p></o:p></span></p><h4 style='mso-margin-top-alt:18.7pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:2.5pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;line-height:initial;font-size:1.25rem;-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased'><b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Vertical integration</span></b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></h4><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Nigerian tomato paste producer Tomato Jos has overcome these raw material challenges through vertical integration, a strategy whereby a company owns its supply chain or parts thereof.

If a factory doesn’t have an adequate tomato supply, it won’t be profitable, particularly in Nigeria where energy outlays are high. “If your capacity utilisation drops below 80%, your cost per tonne of production will balloon up, and you won’t be able to make money from your finished product,” Mehta explains. “Instead of making paste one batch at a time, you need to constantly feed raw materials into your factory, every hour of every day, to spread the huge energy costs over as high a volume of finished product as possible.”<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Tomato yields in Nigeria are much lower than the world average: 5.47 tonnes per hectare, compared to a global average of 38.1 tonnes. Tomato Jos therefore had to put in considerable effort to improve the yields of its smallholder suppliers. “They actually had to farm themselves to prove that you can achieve those yields, and then start working with farmers to show them how they can grow crops in order to achieve those yields,” explains Euler Bropleh, managing director of VestedWorld, one of Tomato Jos’ investors. Only once Tomato Jos felt comfortable with the high-quality supply, did it build its factory, which officially opened in 2021.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Bropleh mentions one of Tomato Jos’ competitors that constructed a tomato paste factory without ensuring it had access to adequate raw materials to feed the facility: “They thought they could buy those raw materials from farmers when they harvested it.

They couldn’t get access to all the raw materials they needed.” <o:p></o:p></span></p><h4 style='mso-margin-top-alt:18.7pt;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:2.5pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;line-height:initial;font-size:1.25rem;-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased'><b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>Facing financial constraints</span></b><span style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></h4><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:23.4pt;margin-left:0cm;background:white;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:0.975rem'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black'>In the Republic of Congo, Michel Djombo – founder of agribusiness company GTC – sees significant possibilities for the import substitution of palm oil, used for cooking throughout central and west Africa. He believes extensive market research is unnecessary: Congo’s official customs data already shows the large volumes of oil currently brought in from as far afield as Malaysia as well as the prices at which the commodity is imported.

As a result, businesses in Ethiopia tend to invest a lot more in working capital, which is something you wouldn’t typically see in a country such as Kenya. For example, for a similar business operating in Kenya, we’d keep stocks for one and a half months, whereas in Ethiopia we’d keep input stocks for six months.
