The Future

Strategic Expansion and Vertical Integration

Ekhaya Farms has focused on strategic expansion and vertical integration opportunities since the opening up of the Malawi economy. The current climate calls for reviewing past successes and adapting to the present macroeconomic environment.

With appropriate investments, Ekhaya Farms can position itself as a market leader in the production and distribution of meat products in Malawi and contribute to improvement of the national livestock sector.

Future opportunities include strategic sourcing of animal feed through our own channels and outgrower or contract grower supplier alliances with small-scale livestock producers. Sabie provides technical, nutritional, breeding and veterinary support in return for security of supply.
