Why Asia?
Asia represents one of the fastest growing markets in the world
66% of the global middle class expected to reside in the region, and Asia’s population is expected to reach 5 billion in 2050 that will account for 60% of global consumption. It’s estimated that Asia will more than double its total spend on food over the next decade, from US$4 trillion in 2019 to over US$8 trillion by 2030.
To meet this demand, governments across the region are aggressively pursuing strategies to ensure greater food security and this includes actively encouraging agrifoodtech and innovative food entrepreneurs to help grow the local ecosystem by establishing themselves in the region.
