The world's fastest-growing consumers sit behind unbuilt agrifood infrastructure and unread country risk. Oshosi Capital Partners closes both gaps.

At least 80% of new food and beverage consumers over the coming decade will be located in emerging and frontier markets.

By 2050, the 2.5 billion new urban dwellers will largely live in the Global South and spend between $13-50 per day, ultimately driving demand for more packaged, high value foods and new ways of consumption both at and away from home.

Still, most emerging and frontier markets suffer from crop production yield gaps, a lack of efficient processing facilities, and limited post-harvest and production storage and transport infrastructure.

Moreover, hard commodities—oil, gas, and metals—will be equally important in fortifying opportunities and ensuring reliable access.

Country and sovereign risk at times will complicate the build-out of food and beverage value chains, but aggressive development plans and macroeconomic targets—especially among the 76% of emerging and frontier market countries that are net food importers—will accelerate sector growth.
