Overarching commitment (for commitments submitted pre-2025)
Title
Fortified food for 25 million people by 2025
Description
In many East African countries, up to 90% of the population consumes maize flour, which is mostly processed by small non-industrial mills.
Sanku developed the technology and a business model that allow those small mills to add vital nutrients, or to fortify, their flour during processing. Our business model offsets the cost of the nutrients added so small mills do not have to charge extra for fortified flour, giving their customers affordable access to nutritious flour.
We work with 600 mills to give 2.5 million East Africans access to flour that has been fortified with vital nutrients. By 2025 we will be reaching 25 million people in up to five countries.
