Why Tami Fresh? 

Tami Fresh exists to bridge the gap between Zambia’s rich agricultural potential and the growing demand for high-quality, locally processed food products. While farmers often face post-harvest losses due to limited preservation and processing facilities, consumers increasingly seek healthy, natural, and locally made options.

 

Our operations add value to locally grown fruits and vegetables, turning them into jams, sauces, beverages, and other preserved goods that extend shelf life, reduce waste, and create year-round availability. By sourcing directly from local farmers, we not only improve their incomes but also promote sustainable agriculture and rural economic development.

 

Furthermore, Tami Fresh contributes to import substitution by providing quality Zambian-made alternatives to foreign products, keeping more revenue within the country. With modern processing standards, strong branding, and an expanding market locally and regionally, Tami Fresh is well-positioned to enhance food security, stimulate agro-industry growth, and support national economic diversification.
