1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:10,159 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. The Ivory Coast is 2 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 1: famous for its cocoa production, but there's another being that's 3 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: starting to get even more attention. 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 2: We produced our old coffee. You have more and more 5 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 2: local roasters that are coming up. 6 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:24,759 Speaker 3: Before it was all about, you know, importing coffee that's produced, 7 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 3: you know, in Europe. 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: Like chocolate. Much of Africa's coffee is sold to be 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: processed abroad. But can one West African entrepreneur bring homegrown 10 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: and roasted coffee to the African market. 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 2: We teach a lot of things about coffee, things I 12 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 2: never knew about. 13 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 3: It's a new role in discovering and it's also always 14 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 3: kind of evolving. 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: On this week's special episode of The Next Africa Podcast, 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: I take a look at the growing popularity of specialty 17 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: coffee inside Africa and meet one man who's looking at 18 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: to put Ivorian coffee on the map alongside Ethiopia, Kenya 19 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: and Ganda. I'm Jennifer Zabasaja, and this is the Next 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: Africa Podcast, bringing you one story each week from the 21 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: continent driving the future of global growth with the context 22 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: only Bloomberg can provide. When it comes to coffee, The 23 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: big players most consumers know are Brazil, Vietnam, Indonesia and Colombia. 24 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: While African farmers are making inroads on the global market, 25 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 1: especially in East African countries like Ethiopia and Uganda, much 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,199 Speaker 1: of the coffee is shipped abroad whilst it's still green 27 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: with most of the roasting and consumption happening abroad. But 28 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: Heidi Baydoun wants to change that. He's the entrepreneur behind 29 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: Cafe Continent, a specialty coffee shop and roastery in the 30 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: Ivorian economic hub of Abijan. I went to meet him 31 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: at one of his roasteries to find out what it 32 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: takes to build a new brand of home grown coffee. 33 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: Fourth generation Lebanese West African from from West Africa. 34 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: But but I. 35 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: I've been traveling a lot in the past the past years, 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 3: and I did my undergrad in in Australia and Sydney 37 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 3: and especially coffee culture over there. It was was very, 38 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 3: very developed. And and after that, when I came back 39 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 3: to to the Harvy Coast, I saw that there was 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 3: an opportunity. 41 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: I took a lot of courses and I started the project. 42 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: And you call it a project, why why do you 43 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: use that term not a business. 44 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: I guess initially it's not for me. It's it's it's 45 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 3: not just about making money. You know, when you say business, 46 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 3: he's always did the financials for me. There's there's more 47 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 3: than just you know, making money. It's it's it's an ideology, 48 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 3: it's a philosophy. It's it's you know, bringing people together. 49 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 3: It's changing the paradigm. It's creating something new that basically 50 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 3: maybe people will never you know, never thinking about in 51 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 3: the past. It's about hiring a team of people that 52 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: don't necessarily know much about this culture, especially coffee culture, 53 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 3: working together on the specific mission, specific goals that are 54 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 3: for the future of you know, the continent. We produce 55 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: our own coffee because it's written on the on the glass, but. 56 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 2: No one sees that. 57 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 3: No one understands that we roast our own coffee traditionally. 58 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 3: That's how I guess, you know, people drink their coffee here. 59 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 3: I would say there are two markets, right, there's the 60 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 3: market that's like cheap coffee, you know, the nest cafe 61 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: kind of coffee, and also the cheap powder ground coffee. 62 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: And there's also the important coffee. So there's two different segments. 63 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: You know, we intervene in the you know, obviously in 64 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 3: the segment where people used to consume important coffee because 65 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: quality wise, this is what we're offering. 66 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: We're offering a very high quality coffee. 67 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 3: But what we are proposing is high quality coffee that 68 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 3: is locally produced. 69 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: So we have. 70 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 3: Ivorian coffee beans that we select from the different villages 71 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 3: in the western part of the country. 72 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: We usually go to those areas at least, you know, 73 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: once a month. We tell them. 74 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 3: How we know we want the coffee to be kind 75 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: of collected. The cherry is basically how the cherries should 76 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 3: be tried, so and so forth. So we go all 77 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 3: the way to this part of production and we have 78 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: our own factory. We have you know, very high technologically 79 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 3: advanced equipment, good processes, and we have our coffee shops 80 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 3: as well, where we control also the quality of the 81 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 3: coffee that is brood and that is basically. 82 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: Sold to our customers. 83 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: In a moment, we'll have more from my interview with Heidi, 84 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: including his ambitions to grow Cafe Continent as a brand, 85 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: plus our soft comodities reporter Mumbi Kitao will join us 86 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: to explain the state of the coffee market in twenty 87 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: twenty five. Welcome back today. We're talking African coffee and 88 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: back at Cafe Continent. I asked Heidi where he wants 89 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: to see the company in five years time. 90 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: Even here at the. 91 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 3: Factory level, we've basically expanded. 92 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 2: We've taken World War space. 93 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 3: We've also invested in new machines, higher capacity machines. When 94 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 3: it comes to our coffee shops, we you know, we 95 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 3: started with one small coffee shops, coffee shop thirty five scarimeters, 96 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 3: and then we you know, developed other coffee shops. Now 97 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 3: we have three operational coffee shops and we're opening a 98 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 3: fourth and fifth one this year in Africa in the 99 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 3: Irvy Coast. So four are going to be in Abi 100 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 3: joh and one in San Pedro, which is another town 101 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 3: in the west part of the Airy Coast. And I'm 102 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: actually working on a franchise model so that we can 103 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 3: maybe start franchise in our concept. 104 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: Maybe at the end of the year. Is the interest there, Yeah, 105 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 2: the interest has been there from the start. 106 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 3: We've had people interested asking about our concept, whether or 107 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 3: not you know, they can collaborate open the same thing 108 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 3: in different you know, places around the world, different cities, we've. 109 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 2: Had people interested globally. 110 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, globally yeah five year ago for Claffic Contina would 111 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 3: be at least in West Africa to be the number 112 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 3: one high quality coffee after we are in the air coasts, 113 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 3: but we might not be in West Africa yet, so 114 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,799 Speaker 3: we have to develop also our brand in neighboring countries 115 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 3: such a Ghana, Ancheria, Senegal and so on and so forth. 116 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: So this is something we need to work on. 117 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 3: So open the first shops outside of the air coast, 118 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 3: whether in the region or not, you know, whether in 119 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 3: Africa or not, what do present and other places. 120 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Around the world. 121 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: So how challenging is the market for African coffee.

Mumbe, it's great to have you back. 124 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: How are you doing. 125 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 4: I'm very fine. It's happy to be buck. 126 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: It's really nice to have you so, Mumbi, you have 127 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: traveled the continent looking at a number of commodities. We're 128 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: talking today about coffee. When we look at African producers 129 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: and African coffee producers, how do they stack up against 130 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: some of the other coffee producers globally. 131 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 4: When it comes to the African continent, a lot of 132 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 4: focus is placed on Ethiopia, which is the biggest produce 133 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 4: over Arabica beans, and we have Uganda which is now 134 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 4: the biggest producer of robusta beans. That's within the African continent. 135 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 4: But there's also focus on countries like Rhonda, Burundi, Kenya 136 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 4: that produce what you'd consider specialty coffee. They do not 137 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 4: export in huge time aged like Ethiopia and Uganda, but 138 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 4: they do produce the premium coffee that most of the 139 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 4: European market prefer. 140 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: You talk about the European market, which we'll get to 141 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: some of the export markets and a little bit. But 142 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: we've had you on the podcast before talking about the 143 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: rising and I guess the volatile price of chocolate right 144 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: because of climate change. When we think about climate change, 145 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: is it affecting the price of beans and the effects 146 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: on coffee farmers as much. So. 147 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 4: The story with cocoa, which is the ingredient in chocolate, 148 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 4: is the same for coffee. The trees are quite similar 149 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 4: in terms that they are tree crops and they have 150 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 4: similar challenges when it comes to climate change. We reported 151 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 4: earlier this year about coffee prices getting to record prices, 152 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 4: and that was mainly because of drought in Brazil, and 153 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 4: before that we had drought in Vietnam. So it's also 154 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 4: production is literally determined by how the weather and how 155 00:08:58,880 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 4: the climate plays out. 156 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: The King Crowers isn't attractive though, for African coffee farmers 157 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: as it is for African cocoa farmers. Can you compare 158 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: those two for us? 159 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 4: They're both attractive depending on what the market is doing, 160 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: depending on the price. So last year was a very 161 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 4: good year to be a cocoa farmer and still is 162 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 4: right now if your market is liberalized. It was also 163 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 4: a good time to be coffee trader or coffee farmer 164 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 4: at the start of this year. The thing is that 165 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 4: with coffee we have a lot more producers, so if 166 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 4: one country is lacking, then another country will pick up. 167 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 4: But with coco, we have two big producers in Africa, 168 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 4: so it's easy for them to kind of benefit when 169 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 4: the market is heading up because they are the sole 170 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 4: place where the world is reliant on. 171 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: Is there something that we should be watching for when 172 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: it comes to African coffee farmers? And I say that 173 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: because this independent entrepreneur that I met in the Ivory Coast. 174 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: He's really making a push to get the global consumers 175 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: to understand more about this African the beans and the 176 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: specialty coffee and just how rich it is. What is 177 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: it that maybe we should know and we should be 178 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: watching war and you as a soft commodities reporter that 179 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: you're looking. 180 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 4: At not just as a soft commodities reporter. I come 181 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 4: from Kenya, where we used to be one of the 182 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 4: biggest producers of coffee in Africa, and that's no longer 183 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 4: the case, but still Kenya is one of the biggest 184 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 4: producers of specialty coffee, same as Round, the same as Africa, 185 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 4: same as other smaller origins in Africa. I think the 186 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 4: key for them is value addition and the entrepreneur you 187 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 4: met with, that's a good way to try and capture 188 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 4: the market because if you look at the supply chain, 189 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 4: the family receives about five to ten percent of the 190 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 4: retail price of coffee, whereas the rest of the margin 191 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 4: goes to the trader, and a huge margin also goes 192 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 4: to the rostera Rosa's like Nestley, such big companies tend 193 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: to take up that kind of imagine. So if Africa 194 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 4: was going to grow in its coffee production, and it's 195 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: in revenue and income. They need to focus more on 196 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 4: value addition, creating their own rosteries, selling their own coffee, 197 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 4: drinking their own coffee. I think that's a good place 198 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 4: to start. Growing up, we didn't drink a lot of coffee. 199 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 4: We drank a lot more tea. So if Africa was 200 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 4: to boost its own consumption rather than exporting all its 201 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: coffee to the European and the American markets, then there 202 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 4: will be more room for growth for the farmers and 203 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 4: their income. 204 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: Are those trends changing? 205 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 4: Do you see that some countries the trend seems to 206 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 4: be changing. I mean if theopy is a predominantly coffee drinker, 207 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 4: but their countries like Kenya, you Ganda, where coffee consumption 208 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 4: is trying to make in roads, but it's only within 209 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 4: the urban centers where you find maybe a java or 210 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 4: an upscale at cafe where the younger millennials or the 211 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 4: gen z are happy to grab a cap and almost 212 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 4: like brag with it on Instagram. But we just need 213 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 4: to get that more at home consumption where it's a 214 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: consideration from breakfasts the same way in Europe everyone gets 215 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 4: coffee for their breakfasts. 216 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: And this is this is a tradition that I deal 217 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: with human bee. How do you like your coffee? Do 218 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: you do you drink coffee? 219 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 4: Joh And I don't know why you do this to me. 220 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: I have to You're Kenyon and you're you're not just 221 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: a suf commodities reporter. Do you like coffee? 222 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 4: Should I lie? Should I tell the truth? I do 223 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,479 Speaker 4: like coffee only when I really need the caffeine boosts. 224 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 4: But I am really a tea drinker. And after having 225 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 4: the water bowl, do you know there's always this controversy 226 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 4: whether you add the milk first or the tea bug fast. 227 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 4: But I put my water on tea bug and then 228 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 4: milk later. But I think I am warming up to 229 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 4: coffee slowly. The it's slow. Let's start with instant. Then 230 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: we're going to get to the lattice of the cappuccinos. 231 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: Much still has a place in this podcast because of course, 232 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 1: tea is a very big market for so appreciate that insight. 233 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: Thanks so much, Mumbi Guitao, and thank you also to 234 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: Haidi Baydude, the founder of Cafe Continent, for showing me 235 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: around his grocery in Abijan.
