This document discusses food safety in Africa and outlines some key challenges. It notes that while regulations, modernization, and training can help improve food safety, they are not sufficient on their own. Regulations are often not followed, as seen in studies finding high levels of contaminants in milk and fish exceeding safety standards. Modernization and training also have limitations without proper incentives in place. There is increasing concern among consumers in developing countries about food safety, and many are willing to pay more for safer food options. A holistic approach is needed to address food safety issues in Africa.
