Our mission is to work with local and foreign innovators to prevent post-harvest food losses through affordable solutions and create economic opportunities for the youth and small-scale farmers. We combine research, smart innovations, and youth creativity in designing and delivering products that respond to farmers’ needs. Our work is based on the belief that preventing food loss and waste has a profound impact on farmers’ livelihoods and a sustainable solution to food shortages in Tanzania.
