We carry out meticulous checks on every batch to ensure that quality standards are always at the highest levels.
We started as Aquaponics and our priority has always been to create and support a fair market between East Africa and the rest of the world. We use environmentally friendly cultivation techniques, promoting conservation and maintaining symbiosis between crops and the surrounding nature.
For years, we have been assisting farmers who embrace our philosophy, helping them sell their unique products in the global market.
Thanks to direct relationships with growers, we have created a solid and controlled network that extends between Uganda, Zanzibar, Tanzania, Kenya, and Madagascar.
Our goal? To resell high-quality products.
We cultivate and distribute Bourbon vanilla, recently introduced to the continental East Africa by experienced farmers tired of the Malagasy monopoly and intensive exploitation by French multinational corporations on plantations.
The beans are between 14 and 16 cm long and dark brown in color, with a vanillin content between 1.8-2% and moisture levels of 27-35%.
These characteristics promote our vanilla to high-quality standards. However, by having direct communication with the farmers without the intervention of intermediaries, we can offer our customers very competitive prices and personalized deals to meet all needs.
