The entrepreneurial savvy and result oriented Chief Executive Officer of Capitol Foods Sierra Leone, Hamza Hashim, is among the Top 50 Finalists shortlisted for this year’s Africa’s Business Heroes Prize.
Quite amazing and really commendable is that out of more than 20,000+ entrepreneurs, Hamza shows up for Sierra Leone by becoming the country’s first entrepreneur to secure a Top 50 spot in Africa’s Business Heroes Top 50 Finalists for this year.
Undoubtedly, Hamza with his team continues to set high standards at Capitol Foods. As a matter of fact, he is the first entrepreneur from Sierra Leone to reach the stage of a highly competitive prize that had over 20,000 entrepreneurs across the African continent.
It is important to note that the central aim of Africa’s Business Heroes is to identify, support, and inspire the next generation of African entrepreneurs who are making an impact in their local communities.
Since its inception, the prize selects ten business heroes from the continent to compete for a total of USD 1.5 million in grant funding.
As a well established business entity that has stood the test of time, Capitol Foods is one of Sierra Leone’s top business brands and as a beverage as well as food processing company it adopts a “From Farm to Table” business model working with over 10,000 farmers around Sierra Leone to produce the finest fruits and cocoa beans.
