Sierra Leone’s food and agriculture sector presents significant opportunities for investment, enterprise growth, and value addition, spanning primary production, food processing, agribusiness, and related value chains. FAO’s 2026 investment profile identifies US$760 million in agrifood investment opportunities across priority value chains, with a projected overall internal rate of return of 26.7%. 

Against this backdrop, British International Investment will convene the Sierra Leone Food & Agriculture Investment Forum in London on 12 October 2026, hosted at Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer LLP. 

The Forum will showcase selected Sierra Leone business and investment opportunities to a targeted audience of investors, development finance institutions, and private sector partners. The programme will feature presentations from enterprises seeking investment and commercial partnerships, alongside a high-level discussion on the financing landscape and opportunities for growth across the sector. 

Designed as a focused gathering, the Forum will bring together key global parties, creating a platform for direct engagement and practical investment conversations. 

The event organising partners include ARIA, Invest Africa, Invest Salone, and Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer LLP.
