This year marked the continuation of our belief in the future of Africa s industry. All the members of our team at Food- World Media believe that our industry-focused magazines and events that we do organize will eventually lead to the realization of world-class operations and practices, that will help to unearth the vast potential in the continent. Now in its second year, the 2016 edition of AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa focused on food and beverage processing, packaging and food safety. Significant improvements are in store for the 2017 edition of the event, chief of which is the addition of a second conference stream that covers the grains, milling and feed sector in the region. At AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa 2016, over 300 food and beverage industry investors, managers, professionals; suppliers of equipment, ingredients/chemicals, packaging and services; Government regulators; NGO/development agency managers congregated to discuss ways to improve processing, packaging, retail, storage, distribution and food safety in the continent. Some of the industry s CEOs and high-level executive leaders were at hand to share their aspirations, achievements and their thoughts on the industry s challenges, trends and opportunities through presentations and panel discussions that added an extra punch to the event. To the event speakers and panelists, we are sincerely thankful for taking time away from your busy schedule to We are also grateful to the Vision Scientific & Engineering Africa, our main Cocktail Sponsor, plus our exhibitors, partners and product partners who made the event to be a huge success. We cannot also fail to appreciate our hosts, Kenya School of Monetary Studies for excellent food and facilities and serene atmosphere that our delegates and visitors enjoyed to be at. We also appreciate the effort and commitment taken by delegates from Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas who made it to the 2016 event. We know it costs money and time to attend, but we are hopeful you achieved your goal of coming to AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa.

3 2016 REPORT & 2017 BROCHURE ABOUT AFMASS INDUSTRY EVENTS From left: Amir Parpia, Finance Director, Alpha Fine Foods; Duncan Kimani, Country Manufacturing Manager, Coca-Cola Sabco; Rajan Shah, CEO, Capwell Industries; Francis Juma, CEO, FoodWorld Media, the event organisers; Bimal Shah, CEO, Broadways Group; and Wayne Kleynhans, Training Manager, Krones East Africa at the end of the Panel Discussion by Industry Business Leaders at AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa 2016 in Nairobi, Kenya The AFMASS range of events commenced in 2015, when the first Food Safety Summit Africa Conference & Exhibition was held at Strathmore University in Nairobi, Kenya. The Food Safety Summit Africa Conference & Exhibition was the first event focused solely on food safety in food and agricultural produce in the region. The event was changed into the African Food Manufacturing & Safety Summit Conference & Exhibition (AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa) in 2016 to provide a broader scope covering food processing, food packaging and food safety. With a broader scope, the 2016 event was able to meet the unique needs of the delegates, considering that food safety exists in a matrix with other deliverables in any facility. AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa 2016 therefore covered such important subject matter areas including costs and formulations management, sustainability, process and engineering management, food safety, packaging, quality and systems management, product and market trends, among other topics. The event has created a niche in the industry: it is the only forum where investors, C-suite executives, managers and professionals in the industry meet suppliers, Government regulators and NGO/development organisation managers to network, learn and seek opportunities on trends, technology, innovations and solutions to challenges that bedevil the industry in Africa. The event continues to attract key people from a number of international, regional and local players in the industry including Unilever, Brookside, Coca-Cola, Nestle, Promasidor, Unga Holdings, Proctor & Allan, Mombasa Maize Millers, University of Nairobi, among many others. Beginning 2017, AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa will transition to cover Food, Milling & Feed processing, packaging and food safety; providing an opportunity to have a conference stream that focuses on the fast-growing milling and feed processing industry in Africa, separately from the other food and beverage sectors, for the first time in the region. The 2017 edition will have two conference streams: a) African Food Manufacturing & Safety Conference (AFMASS) covering the processing, packaging, retail, storage and distribution and food safety in the dairy, beverages, fruits and vegetables, meat, and other food products, including food service industries. b) African Grains, Milling & Feed Conference (AF- GRAINS) - covering the processing, packaging, retail, storage and distribution of dairy and food safety in the grains, milling, baked and extruded products and animal feed industries AFMASS Eastern & Central Africa is part of the AFMASS conferences and exhibitions, that FoodWorld Media plans to establish in Africa over the next few years. FoodWorld Media is the publisher of industry publications including Food Business Africa, Dairy Business Africa, Milling & Baking Africa and Agri-Business Africa and Industry Business Africa. 3
