Africa’s poultry sector is steadily expanding, driven by rapid urbanisation, a growing middle class, and changing dietary preferences that favour animal protein. This rising demand for poultry meat and eggs opens up significant opportunities for collaboration between Dutch and African businesses across the value chain.
However, the sector faces persistent challenges – such as high feed costs, limited product availability, and disease control – that must be addressed to ensure sustainable growth and profitability.
With its globally recognised expertise in poultry, the Netherlands is well-positioned to support Africa’s poultry industry through innovation, training, and strategic partnerships.
As part of a broader four-day programme, the Dutch Africa Poultry Forum will take place on 19 May 2025 at Aeres University of Applied Sciences. Organised by NABC and Aeres Training Centre, this high-level event provides a practical platform for Dutch and African poultry professionals to connect, share knowledge, and identify business opportunities.
Key programme highlights include:
-
A plenary session on innovation, investment, and collaboration opportunities
-
Breakout sessions addressing real-world challenges and applicable solutions
-
Curated matchmaking with African and Dutch poultry leaders
-
Networking with African poultry entrepreneurs
The Forum will host over 25 poultry sector delegates from Senegal, Guinea Conakry, DRC, Benin, Comoros, Burundi, and Burkina Faso.
Registration is now open exclusively to NABC members. Please note that due to limited capacity, submission does not guarantee admission. All registrations will be reviewed and confirmed accordingly.
