The inaugural International Commodity Summit 2025 (ICS2025) is set to take place at the Cape Town International Convention Centre, marking a significant milestone as Africa’s first premier event dedicated to the commodity sector. This landmark summit aims to bridge the gap between buyers and sellers in the commodity market, fostering collaboration and understanding among key stakeholders. Hosted by Hibarri, an online commodity trading platform focused on advancing the sector, the summit promotes inclusivity and diversity within the industry.
Hibarri’s CEO, Anje Kruger, highlighted the summit’s importance in reshaping perceptions of the commodity industry. “A lot of people use the industry as a scam, and it makes it difficult for those who actually contribute to it,” Kruger stated. The summit aims to challenge these misconceptions and play a vital role in promoting commodity trade in the global economy.
ICS2025 will gather a diverse group of participants, including academics, investors, business leaders, and parliament members. Through keynote speeches and engaging debates, attendees will address pressing global issues and discuss international policies affecting the commodity market. This collaborative environment is designed to cultivate innovative solutions and strengthen relationships within the industry. The summit will be hosted by legendary South African rugby titan Victor Matfield, alongside a lineup of celebrities, influential figures, and key industry players.
Cherrylee Samson, Vice President of Hibarri, noted that the summit will be a game-changer, providing a blueprint for the commodity sector to expand and gain credibility. “With a focus on fostering trust and cooperation, the summit hopes to pave the way for sustainable growth and development in the industry,” she explained. “Launching this summit in South Africa is challenging because it is a first, but I am sure that anyone attending will benefit from the event; it offers a platform for everyone.”
The International Commodity Summit 2025 not only provides a platform for dialogue but also seeks to enhance transparency and credibility within the commodity sector. This event promises to advance the industry while bolstering the South African economy at a critical time.
