Believing in the Genius in Africa!

RMI is a team of Development Facilitators and Mentors working with rural communities in Africa, preparing them for commercial farming. We act as a guide for investors, businesses and farming communities, helping them to find ways to co-create a path to mutual prosperity. 
 
RMI uses a unique social empowerment approach that puts the people at the centre of development. It is a 3D approach that addresses the Economic, Physical and Social dimensions of development in balanced way. This approach has facilitated establishment of sustainable smallholder companies with high  success rate in several countries where RMI has been involved.
