Focus on global food security at a major conference hosted by Joburg

The global food industry is at a crossroads, and with food insecurity escalating, particularly in South Africa, wholesale markets continue to play a crucial role in stabilising food supply and ensuring accessibility.

Exciting news for industry leaders, fresh produce experts, and market innovators: the World Union of Wholesale Markets (WUWM) Conference 2025 website is now live. This highly anticipated event, set to take place in Johannesburg from 14 to 16 May, will be a global platform for key stakeholders to discuss the future of food security and wholesale trade.

TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE FOOD SECURITY

Every meal we consume begins with a farmer and a well-functioning food system. Wholesale markets serve as a vital link between farmers and consumers, ensuring that food is efficiently distributed, prices remain stable, and communities have reliable access to fresh produce. Their role in tackling food insecurity cannot be overstated.
