RENEW Strategies

Uganda/DRC - Agriculture - Organic Farming of High-Value Crops

The SME processes high-value crops into finished organic products and seeks investment to finance the purchase of raw vanilla and cocoa from farmers and to build improved processing stations and dryers. The SME buys products directly from 1,000 small farmers, much of which comes from the formerly war-torn North Kivu Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The revenue created for the farmers and technical assistance provided by this business offer hope to devastated communities and displaced people returning to their homes for the first time after years in refugee camps

Despite global recession, the opportunity has increased revenue by 20% over the past year. The business has even turned down new clients due to supply constraints caused by lack of capital for expansion. The opportunity requires $100k-500k to purchase land, build two new processing stations, one central dryer, and a supply of raw vanilla and cocoa.
