Tchibanga (Gabon) (AFP) – “It’s very, very reassuring for us, as consumers, to know where our products come from,” says Mathieu Msellati who, eating in a Gabonese restaurant, has just tucked into something of a rarity. Msellati’s steak was produced just 50 kilometres away, an uncommon proximity in a country highly reliant on food imports, but where a movement is growing to champion local produce and develop a greater degree of food self-sufficiency.
