Description

IntroductionFirst Foods Africa seeks to incentivize local production of nutritious, safe, affordable and sustainable first foods, targeting ingredients that are missing from children’s diets, to prevent malnutrition. First foods include formulated complementary foods, food ingredients, healthy snacks, food supplements and nutrition supplements (refer to this document for more details). As mandated by UNICEF, the purpose of the First Foods Africa Market Scoping Exercise (“Market Scoping Exercise” or “FFASE” or “exercise”) is to better understand the dynamics of the financing demand and supply for First Foods producers in 6 out of 14 Africa countries targeted by First Foods Africa in Phase 11 and the investment needs of those markets, in terms of both capital and business advisory services.
