Nhimbe Fresh

Nhimbe Fresh is a Zimbabwe-based agricultural company specializing in the export of premium blueberries, raspberries, and peas. The company operates in the fresh produce market, targeting international clients primarily in the UK and EU. Nhimbe Fresh employs a business model that combines traditional farming with innovative financing methods, such as crowdsourcing and solar power initiatives. This approach not only supports their farming operations but also benefits neighboring farmers. The company has exclusive rights to grow the Oz Blu range of low chill blueberry varieties, which allows them to access higher market prices from August to November. Nhimbe Fresh generates revenue through the export of high-quality produce and has expanded its production capacity through joint ventures. Additionally, the company grows tobacco under contract for export and produces seed maize, crisping potatoes, and juicing tomatoes for domestic consumption. Nhimbe Fresh's commitment to quality is evident in their stringent criteria for size, taste, firmness, color, natural bloom, shelf life, and juiciness of their produce.
