The Foundation’s main goal is to contribute to community development and the long term, sustainable growth of local employment across various regions of Africa. By improving smallholders’ knowledge of the fertility of their land and quality of their crop, the potential to attract warehousing facilities and processing plants is increased, thereby expanding local employment to rural areas that would otherwise be without sustainable economies.

With this goal in mind, the ETG Farmers Foundation was formed as an entity dedicated to supporting the smallholder communities across Sub-Saharan Africa and strengthening the farm gate model by extending the reach of the ETG mission. The Foundation’s primary role is to act as the conduit between farmers and consumers, effectively increasing efficiencies by eliminating the middleman.
