Our History

The AFRASEAN Foundation is a Business Facilitation Network which creates alliances with leading Business organisations/ chambers of commerce from the ASIA PACIFIC AND AFRICA region.

The FOUNDATION was set up in 2019 and consists of leading businesses from Indonesia, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Tunisia.

The purpose of Afrasean is to create a platform from which business associations from the region can discuss the challenges for businesses and identify shared solutions and policy recommendations. A specific emphasis is on improving access to the African market for businesses from the Asia-Pacific region region.

Afrasean will contribute to the creation of a more enabling environment for the private sector in the region for the benefit of growth and development in general.
The participating Businesses have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to work strategically together, promoting relevant policy issues within and between their respective countries and internationally.
