Revolutionizing the Pyrethrum sector
At MannaTech, we strive to be more than just investors. We aim to be trusted partners and off-takers for the Kenyan pyrethrum farmers. Our commitment lies in treating farmers with respect and integrity, providing fair prices and supporting their social and economic growth.
By use of tools such as genetic engineering of planting material in our research and development of pyrethrum genotypes, we will enhance flower quantity and increase pyrethrin content.
Our Impact
- Empowering Farmers: We ensure farmers enjoy a steady monthly income with increasing profitability over three years.
- Boosting the National Economy: Manna Tech’s quality exports drive significant foreign exchange earnings for Kenya, contributing to national growth.
- Job Creation: Manna Tech creates jobs, particularly for women and youth, helping reduce rural-urban migration and fostering local economic development.
- Empowering Communities: By empowering smallholder farmers, especially women (who make up 35% of Kenya’s 7 million smallholders), we are improving livelihoods and strengthening community resilience.
