Tassiwa Multipurpose Services Fighting Food Insecurity in Nigeria with Sweet Potato Flour"

In 2018, my mother was diagnosed with diabetes, and we discovered the need for healthier food options. Experimenting with various tubers, sweet potatoes stood out due to their low glycemic index, natural sweetness, and nutritional benefits. At Tassiwa Multipurpose Services, we process sweet potatoes into flour, a versatile, cost-effective, and gluten-free alternative to wheat flour. Our product is ideal for individuals with dietary restrictions, food production companies, and bakeries. Beyond this, we drive impact by promoting sustainable agriculture, recycling waste into animal feed, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through local production. We’ve produced 3,561 sachets, generating $8,290 in revenue and $6,161 in net profit. With $500,000 funding, we aim to scale production, automate processes, and expand our market. Join us in transforming health and sustainability while empowering communities.
