Fresh Farm: A farmer and businesswoman in Zimbabwe

Nomaliso Musasiwa’s tech business connects farmers and consumers to provide fresh produce to Zimbabweans.

Nomaliso Musasiwa does not believe in waiting for the government to fix problems, so she is tackling Zimbabwe’s food challenges directly.

She runs a fresh food tech company, connecting small farmers to online clients – from locals looking for fresh, affordable food, to diaspora Zimbabweans who want to support relatives back home.

Fresh Farm by Rumbi Katedza explores this creative commercial response to Zimbabwe’s food insecurity.
