At Grassland Cameroon we invest in solutions that make farmers flourish. We know that with the right resources, they can improve their livelihoods and escape poverty. We also believe that our solutions can be profit making and sustainable, making certain that our farmers have uninterrupted assistance over several years. Our goal is to enable farmers to increase their productivity, access markets and ensure that their production is properly managed after harvest.
What We Do
We are a food storage, drying, and distribution company that sources products from smallholder farmers, whom we support during the season with input loans and training, so that they can be more
productive. We transform the farmers’ produce into standardized, graded products that we sell across
the country, to buyers who can be sure of the quality they receive.
