Africa Peas Market Analysis

  • In Africa, fresh peas are cultivated primarily for their sweet flavor. The two predominant varieties are the common shelled peas and the edible-podded snap peas, which are consumed similarly to green beans and boast sweet, crunchy pods. Both types can be frozen for summer use.
  • The African pea market is experiencing consistent growth, largely fueled by demand in the food and agriculture sectors. A significant driver of this market is the rising preference for plant-based proteins, heightening interest in peas, particularly for uses like pea protein isolate in food and beverages. Additionally, the health benefits of peas are poised to further propel market growth in the coming years. Rich in calcium and packed with magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, phosphorus, folic acid, and vitamins A, C, and B, peas are renowned for their efficacy in treating anemia, low blood pressure, and high cholesterol.
  • African governments are actively bolstering pea production in the region. Numerous African nations are extending financial support, training, and infrastructure development to farmers cultivating peas. With assistance from international allies, these governments are further enhancing the regional pea market. For example, in 2021, UK government aid empowered 2,000 young farmers in western Kenya to forge sustainable livelihoods in horticulture farming including pea farming. A grant of £410,000 (USD 431,125.1) was allocated to the charity Farm Africa, facilitating the expansion of its successful Growing Futures project. This initiative has been instrumental in helping young individuals establish lucrative farming ventures, focusing on in-demand vegetables like French beans, cabbages, garden peas, and black nightshade (managu).
