A. List of 200 private sector stakeholders operating at the regional (Africa) and

global level who are engaged in work relevant to Megatrend 2

A list of the 200 largest agri-food industry companies in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)is here

reported (Table 1) including basic business information in an attempt to paint a representative

picture of regional private investment in the agribusiness sector. Given the gap of knowledge

on the largest African-based companies currently investing in Africa, the selected enterprises

are only African companies or African subsidiaries of foreign multinationals.

The selected companies operate along the entire chain including agricultural production,

manufacturing/processing, retail, distribution and input supplies (chemicals, farm equipment

and machinery). The information includes website or webpage (if the company is an affiliate

of another bigger one and thus lacks of their own), turnover which is the income from sales of

goods and services (only the largest 60 of them ranked according to their turnover), area of

operations, product categories and sub-sectors and the type of business/primary business. The

company information are based on online sources, thus if a large company does not have any

web presence (which we would consider as highly unlikely), then it would not have selected

and included in this list.

The listed companies were selected based on the following inclusion criteria:

The selected companies operate at all stages of the chain such as production operations

on the farm, the storage, processing and distribution of farm commodities and items

made from them. (Davis and Goldberg, 1957). Specifically the actors in the

agribusiness supply chains are: input suppliers (chemical or seed companies),

agricultural producers (mainly farmers), food manufacturer/processing firms,

wholesaler, retailer and distributors (transportation activities). In other words the chain

consist of the agricultural production (input delivery and farming production), the food

industry (processing/manufacturing), marketing and distribution (Davis and Goldberg,

1957; World Bank, 2005; Humphrey and Memedovic, 2006)

Sub-Saharan Africa is the area under consideration as this is the focus of GCFSI for

Y1.

Companies that included in this list can be affiliates or subsidiaries of larger or

multinational companies from another country or from another continent respectively.

For the construction of this list (table 1) The Africa Report (2012) was used that chronicles

the fortunes of the top 500 companies in Africa's key business sectors each year (The Africa

Report, 2012). These rankings, which were published in February 2012, are based on firms'

2010 performance (the year is specified as in some cases the turnover is from 2012), point to

some of the important longer-term changes affecting African economies. The Africa Report

has in their database 7,093 African companies and after the majority of them answered a

detailed questionnaire given by The Africa Report, and then it was used to verify and to

crosscheck the information. The first 500 companies were published of the top 1,550

companies (The Africa Report, 2012). To allow comparison, they apply the same rules to all

data. So according to the methodology which was used:

All financial data had a clearly-defined source (according to the criteria that set by The

Africa Report and are not published), generally communicated to them by the

companies themselves, and referred to the 2010 financial year (in some cases

2010/11).

If presented in local currency, they converted the data into US dollar amounts

according to the rate prevailing on 31 December 2010.

They included all companies who fall under the legal jurisdiction of at least one of the

54 countries in Africa, which was why a holding company and a subsidiary can both

feature in the list.

From the Africa report listed they were selected only those companies which have relation in

agro-food industry while additional companies were added from the list of Africa’s Top 200

companies, a work by African Business Research Limited (financial data is courtesy of

Salami Ayo co-founder of African Business Research Limited ) and from the Africa Business

Pages (2013).
