Agricultural Food Processing
The food processing industry in the Eastern Cape provides countless opportunities to local, national and international businesses and investors. The rich diversity of agricultural products grown in the province and the ease of access to this variety of products allows for opportunities in terms of food processing and food product manufacturing - these include:
- Processing of organic produce (meat, fruit and vegetables) for domestic and international markets
- Canning, juicing and processing of agricultural crops for domestic and international markets
- The establishment of a dried fruit processing plant in either of the two industrial development zones
- Linkages to community projects to provide rural food processing for local and regional consumption
