Farmers Choice Awards & Expo Africa: A Bold New Era for African Agriculture

African agriculture stands at a critical crossroads. How do we transcend regional boundaries and spark meaningful transformation? On the evening of the official launch of Farmers Choice Awards & Expo Africa, we took a bold step towards revolutionizing the sector—connecting, collaborating, and elevating African agribusiness.

At the heart of this groundbreaking transformation is Gideon Lumbani Chilenga, CEO of LC Investments, whose visionary leadership is driving this expansion beyond Southern Africa. With a deep commitment to empowering farmers, service providers, and agribusinesses across the continent, this initiative is set to redefine Africa’s agricultural ecosystem.
