GGEM Mission
GGEM Mission Our Mission is to put more money into farmer’s pockets by offering them an ethical market for their produce.
GGEM Farming exists to strengthen the Agricultural Value Chain by supporting the everyday smallholder farmer to thrive. We are a Social Enterprise that provide Training, Financing and Marketing support so that Malawian farmers earn higher incomes to grow better, eat better and live better. We started this journey because as commercial farmers ourselves, the poverty and injustice faced by the everyday smallholder farmers around us have been for far too long, both perpetual and unfathomable.
We are now proving every season that an Ethical Market Platform that is supported by our GGEM Farming Services will permanently decrease rural farmer poverty in Malawi. We are facilitating their hand up to increased incomes and self-investment.
GGEM Promise
GGEM Farming is driven by our passion for agriculture and the potential it has to boost rural livelihoods and entire communities.
We promise to continue supporting and serving everyday people to be able to work together towards financially equipping themselves to invest in the lives they want to live. We are working towards a Malawi where every man and woman who farms for a living has the access and knowledge to earn a fair income through an Ethical Market Platform, while being a part of a progressive community to share their successes with.
Our Team – Passion and Professionalism
We are a team of agricultural enthusiasts who pride ourselves on our years of practical farming knowledge as well as professional community engagement. We love what we do and above all we value learning and sharing as we continue to pursue the Fight for Fairness- the hand up for Malawi’s Smallholder Farmers.
