Africa Improved Foods (AIF) is a proudly African social enterprise with our roots firmly grounded in Rwanda. With the ambition to expand our impact across the continent, with scalable and sustainable solutions, we want to continue nourishing Africa, one meal at a time. (replace the text in the green box) We are more than just a food manufacturer – we are a movement dedicated to ending malnutrition in Africa. Since our inception in December 2016, we have been helping people maximise their potential through improved nutrition with affordable, high quality, and locally sourced foods. Through this local production of highly nutritious foods, we are reducing poverty, creating jobs, and tackling malnutrition head on. Our unique public-private partnerships approach to tackling malnutrition enables us to extend our reach throughout the value chain. We positively impact local raw materials sourcing; local and regional purchasing; employment; economic development; and the production of high quality, nutritious foods. All this culminates in our ability to feed more than 1.5 million children per day, to reduce malnutrition and strengthen food safety. At AIF, our vision is to be an impact-driven African food champion addressing hunger and malnutrition by building resilient and sustainable food systems, offering consumers nutritious, affordable and accessible products. It is our mission to be the best-in-class provider of safe, nutritious and affordable food, impacting over 10 million lives and livelihoods in Africa, by the end of 2028. We are Africa Improved Foods, an African food champion with an impact mission at its core.
