Quality of life increases for employees of Tanzanian company:

Nyiferfami Limited Utilizes USADF Funding to Expand Production and Sales

Nyirefami Limited is a privately owned flour grain processing company located in Arusha, northern Tanzania.  Having established a successful business record by creating quality products, managing costs, and providing good salaries to its employees, Nyirefami approached USADF to provide assistance as the company sought to expand its production and sales. 

The types of grains processed and sold by Nyirefami help meet the needs of  75% perrcent of the countrys population which depends on such grains to sustain their diets.  In order to take advantage of this vast market, Nyirefami sought to increase its production and distribution capacity, improve management capabilities, and design and execute a marketing plan.

USADF’s investment in Nyirefami is expected to yield improved living standards for company employees, vendors and residents of Arusha and the greater geographic region through increased incomes (quadrupling current employee income levels over five years), employment opportunities (more than doubling purchases from local farmers and increasing the number of direct hire employees), and greater availability of quality, reasonably priced, nutritional food products.

The USADF Difference:  
By assisting this company to expand its sales domestically and internationally, the region will benefit from increased availability of staple foods, helping to improve the health and nutrition for many Tanzanians and people in the region.
