Hi Ebele,

I would wish to nominate Taurus Farms. Founded by 3 Kenyan Yale  University
Alumni who despite being equipped with Degrees from the Ivy league
institution choose to abandon quest for Corporate fame pursue a social
cause by forming Tanuru Farms.

Tanuru Farms seek to integrate small-scale farmers in South Nyanza into the
regional agricultural value chains(AVCs) in the oilseeds sector; and
eventually hope to facilitate value addition as well. Tanuru Farms firmly
believes that the participation of small-scale farmers in AVCs will enable
the farmers to harness the interdependence among the different actors in
the value chain, namely the suppliers of inputs and seeds, the businesses
providing technical support for farmers, the financiers, wholesale
producers of farm products, the processors and associated sellers.

Please check their website www.tanurufarms.com.

I am their business coach and would highly recommend.

Have put one of the team on copy.

Regards

Tim
