In this snippet taken from a recent Foodtech roundtable conversation in Accra, with Alex Darko of Menufinder Africa, and Margaret Debrah of Eato Network, we discuss the explosion of the West African Culinary scene on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, which have increased the appeal of African food worldwide, and the important role content creators play with this. What's more important is how the food is presented, as it may determine who it's appealing to, whether it's aunties or young Ghanaians all over the world.

ABOUT MARGARET:

Margaret Deborah is an innovative entrepreneur who initially ventured into the realm of meal kits, focusing on pre-measured, pre-packed ingredients aimed at diaspora communities in major cities like London and New York. Despite having a solid foundation in content creation, Margaret faced challenges in capitalising the venture, given the substantial operational costs and the need for a robust marketing strategy. Recognising the resource constraints, she made the strategic decision to pivot back to her core strengthโ€”content creationโ€”where the Eato Network experienced significant success.
