The initiative will bring together private-sector expertise and market knowledge to support GPC's advocacy priorities and strengthen the pulse industry's presence in the region.
Stronger industry coordination can help identify opportunities across African pulse markets.
GPC is establishing an Africa Working Group to strengthen the coordinated engagement of its members across the continent and ensure that private-sector perspectives and capabilities are fully aligned with GPC’s advocacy work in the region.
As GPC engages international organisations, development finance institutions, research bodies and governments to expand pulse consumption and production in Africa, this group will provide a practical channel for members active or interested in African markets to share local insight, identify opportunities, and support a coherent industry presence on the ground.
We are now inviting volunteers to join the working group. If your organisation has experience, operations, partnerships or commercial interest in Africa—and would like to help shape GPC’s collective engagement in the region—we would welcome your participation. Please contact Lara Gilmour at lara@globalpulses.com by November 20, 2026 to express interest, or complete the short form below. GPC will review all ex
