SUPPORTING THE NUTRITION WITH NUTRISAM

DID YOU KNOW?     We have a strategic alliance with Adam / Incofin, an institution that supports more than 35 small farmers’ associations, to support the small farmer to commercialize their products in order to facilitate access to the different markets.

DID YOU KNOW?  We support rural production that focuses on the small-scale agricultural sector that also has a weak business focus, so in addition to using their products as raw material , we are opening markets for what they currently produce, as well to help them in a product development to satisfy different demands.

DID YOU KNOW?   We will be providing empowerment workshops for women and creating collaborative spaces that allow the support and promotion of economic initiatives from women, thus fostering the development of collaborative ecosystems.

DID YOU KNOW?  Always looking to be an agent of change, we decided to support the work of Guatemalan child nutrition, creating the Nutrisam beverage.
