VALUE-ADDED agriculture entails changing a raw agricultural product into something new through packaging, processing, cooling, drying, extracting or any other type of process that differentiates the product from the original raw commodity. In our case, our contribution is turning raw fruits into ready processed fruit concentrates consumed not only regional but world-wide. Since the agricultural sector of Uganda employs approximately 72% of the general population and constitutes a third of our nation's GDP we strongly believe in providing a ready market for our fruit farmers and contributing to the sector's employment stability and monetary growth.
What We Do
Kike Tropical Fruits impacts thousands of smallholder fruit farmers all over the country by offering them a ready market for their fruits. Kike Tropical Fruits consistently offers its registered farmers farm extension advisory services. For example training on good agronomic & organic practices.
