One such expansion is in PepsiCo\u2019s move to acquire land to grow potatoes on domestically to feed its production down the supply chain. Shelbaya also noted that the company is in talks with the Trade and Foreign ministries to expand the scope of its exports into East African markets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
