Growing a great product is one thing.
Getting it onto supermarket shelves – and keeping it there – is another.

Join Hein Duvenhage, Co-Founder & CEO of Arable Grow, virtually at the 7th Urban Agri World Summit 2026 for:
“From Container to Supermarket Shelf: Arable Grow’s Journey into Formal Retail.”

Drawing on Arable Grow’s experience supplying SPAR, Hein will share practical lessons on:
• Becoming retail-ready and meeting supermarket expectations.
• Navigating GAP certification and food safety requirements.
• Getting packaging, freshness and shelf life right.
• Matching production to demand and delivering consistently.
• How SPAR’s Supplier Development Programme helped along the way.

For emerging growers and agripreneurs, this is an opportunity to learn from a business navigating the journey into formal retail.

AFTER THE HYPE: WHAT WILL ACTUALLY FEED AFRICA’S FUTURE?

We’re excited to announce an Exclusive Closing Fireside Conversation at the 7th Urban Agri World Summit 2026, featuring Henry Gordon-Smith, Founder & CEO of Agritecture, in a specially pre-recorded presentation for UAW 2026.

Henry will tackle some of the biggest questions facing urban agriculture and controlled-environment farming:
🔹 What did the vertical farming boom – and bust – teach us?
🔹 Which controlled-environment agriculture models are actually succeeding today?
🔹 Where should African farmers, municipalities and startups invest over the next five years?
🔹 If you were starting from scratch tomorrow, what would you build – and what would you avoid?

This is a conversation about moving beyond the hype and focusing on what is commercially viable, scalable and relevant to Africa.

16-18 November 2026
The Capital Zimbali Resort, Ballito, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa

A fitting way to close UAW 2026 – with an honest look at the lessons learned and the choices that could shape Africa’s future food systems.

No hype. No easy answers.
Just what can actually work.

Graeme Smith – Urban Agri World 2026 Speaker Announcement

Is your greenhouse costing you yield and profit?

A greenhouse doesn’t guarantee a successful crop. In warmer climates, the wrong decisions on ventilation, irrigation, climate control, cooling and crop management can quietly destroy yield, quality and margins.

At UAW 2026, Graeme Smith will reveal:
🔥 10 Most Common Mistakes That Can Kill Your Greenhouse Yield & Profit

From choosing the wrong greenhouse and failing to understand your greenhouse climate, to poor irrigation measurements, heat stress and ineffective cooling – Graeme will highlight the mistakes growers need to avoid and how to correct them.

👉 Get the fundamentals right. Grow more. Waste less. Protect your profit.
