We share knowledge and work together with communities.Our work focuses on delivering practical changes that positively impact on the lives of poor people.

Strategies
Our research and development focuses on maximizing the effective use of human resources. Maintaining a high product quality ensures that the entrepreneur has the greatest chance of earning a living.

Production
You cannot afford to take chances with unproven and shoddy products (often copies of our original equipment). We offer a range of equipment whose output can compete profitably against established, commercial mechanized producers.

Quality Control
A good product must be well designed and well made. Our equipment is designed to make products to international standards we have consistently refused to cut corners in use of quality raw materials and production procedures. Experience has proven the wisdom of this policy.

Research
First and foremost ATA is an ideas company and success in labour intensive technologies begins even before the production stage. We started with an outstanding idea and we have continued to grow ever since. Our equipment has proven time and time again that ATA can stand proudly at the forefront of this field in Africa.
