One of our many endeavours here at Fio Capital is to invest in the ever growing agricultural sector, with the aim to enhance global food security and to provide sustainable employment. For this to be possible, collaboration with like-minded visionaries who see the value Africa and its people have to offer is absolutely essential.

By partnering with Madimbo Agri Group, we are in the fortunate position of cooperating in realising this ambitious vision.

Fio Agri’s Focus Elements: Sustainability, Growth, Upliftment

Madimbo Agri Group

Based in Makhado, Limpopo, the Madimbo Agri Group has secured vast and resourceful agricultural farmlands in partnership with local communities. This will lead to the development of around an additional 2000 hectares of highly prosperous Avocado and Macadamia orchards, and when this is achieved, will have a substantial positive impact on the regional economy.

Providing employment to potentially more than 6000 permanent labourers, the Madimbo Agri Project is bound to greatly improve local communities, and in turn aid in combating our nation’s high unemployment rates.

Gene Likhanya, founder of Madimbo Group,

Fio Agri CEO

Local Makhado resident is a man who acknowledges the utmost importance of sustainable agriculture in Africa. He maintains that it lies in the collaborative process of empowerment, education and social upliftment.

Fio Capital shares these same beliefs and strives to set a high standard, so that other groups and organisations in South Africa may follow suit in joining a national drive to make a difference in the communities we serve. Success breeds success. Together we can make a difference.
