Message from the CEO

At AfGCT, we are reimagining how Africa trades by building not just a marketplace, but a continental infrastructure of trust, visibility, and value creation.

Too often, African producers are excluded from the value they create because the systems around them are Fragmented, Informal, and Undercapitalized. We believe that with the right tools: Digital Trust, Inclusive Finance, Cold-Chain Infrastructure, and ESG Alignment, Africa can trade on its “own terms”.

Our mission is BOLD: to connect Africa’s vast supply of Agricultural and Mineral Wealth with global and regional demand; not through middlemen, but through technology, traceability, and trade policy alignment.

With the support of visionary partners across the continent, and institutions like the AfCFTA Secretariat, we are building a future where Africa’s trade is no longer resource-rich but return-poor. Instead, it becomes a model of shared value and sustainable growth.

That’s why we adopt a systemic approach: Trade as the Catalyst of Economic Growth. Because when trade works, governance improves, skills grow, value chains localize, and the future becomes self-funded.

“Welcome to the AfGCT ecosystem. This is trade Africa’s way.”
