About
Africa House London’s aims are fully embedded in the UK Government’s agenda of The African Free Trade initiative (AFTi) aimed at providing technical experts to unblock issues that continue to hold back economic growth.
​
Against the backdrop of the government agenda, Africa House London plays an integral role in substantially increasing trade with Africa by leveraging the extensive links and expertise London can provide to Africa and through bilateral trade. During the past couple of decades, there has been steady growth in Foreign Direct Investment in Africa and returns in economic activities have quadrupled in some countries despite the global economic crisis.
Africa House London identifies this as an opportunity to build investor confidence in the African market and support UK businesses to take advantage of the lucrative business and trade opportunities within the continent.
