Placing ZAMBIA on the global map of world-class avocado producers
Among the World’s largest single-estate, integrated avocado plantation
Sustainable avocado operations – State-of-the-art digital farming technology with scientific monitoring of soil, trees and weather, aiding efficient usage of natural resources and minimizing wastage.
ABOUT
Avocado orchards covering 1,100 Ha in a farm size of over 2000 Ha,
with ideal conditions for sustainable production of high-quality avocados
WHERE WE ARE
Located within the Luena Farm Block in northern Zambia, bordered by a major river, the Kalungwishi, to the east and a tributary, the Mupoposhi, to the west.

STEWARDSHIP
Responsible stewardship of natural resources and a positive effect on the
surrounding communities are the core foundations of our vision.
SUSTAINABILITY
ENVIRONMENT
COMMUNITY
We are proud to actively promote biodiversity of the flora and fauna that inhabit the areas around our orchards, protecting natural forests, waterways and wetlands, maximising the benefit to our local communities.
Our clear priority is to minimise wastage and to use natural resources as efficiently as possible. Avocado trees are perennials and so are more sustainable because they reduce soil and water erosion while sequestering more carbon. A mature avocado tree absorbs around 20 kg of C02 each year, significantly reduced carbon footprint, creating a better life for everyone.
Our Integrated Pest Management program promotes diversity and balance of natural organisms, making our avocados safe to eat, while being produced in an environmentally & socially responsible way.

Our Environmental Impact Study helped identify beneficial land management practices. As part of our responsible stewardship, our aim is to restore the habitat and improve biodiversity of the local flora and fauna. This specifically includes the environmentally sensitive riparian belt along the Mupoposhi River as well as a small tributary watercourse that flows into it.
The indigenous vegetation has been denuded and degraded over time by traditional cut and burn cultivation practises, known locally as chitamene. We are actively propagating indigenous forest tree species to rejuvenate and restore the vegetation voids particularly by reintroducing the larger emergent and upper canopy trees that have been felled previously under the traditional chitamene cultivation system.

Lack of basic infrastructure, surrounding our farm, has been identified as the key constraint to local development. Our primary focus has since been to develop the infrastructure for the local community.
In line with this vision, we have successfully completed the grid connection for mains electricity and are now working on all-weather road and bridge links to the national road network.
In a much-needed boost to local employment prospects, we expect to create around 400 permanent and 800 seasonal jobs, including over 250 jobs for women, while imparting training to uplift the local skill pool.
In addition to the above, several other community projects are in the pipeline.
