JTS and Development

Using trade to rectify injustice

We see trade as a vital key to rectifying injustice.  Where necessary and within our capacity, we supplement this trading and our education work with producer development support and training.  Most of our development work is in the north of Malawi as we have played a pivotal role in growing the smallholder farmers association in this land locked country.  These farmers produce our premier product, the delicious Great Taste award winning Kilombero Rice and it is vitally important to us to support them and to see this partnership continue to grow.  

It is thanks to grants from the Scottish Government that we have been able to progress with the development projects.
