ASHENEWS reports that the Zambia Association of Manufacturers (ZAM) has stated that the recent $332,960 investment by USAID in the honey sector will enhance the product’s competitiveness in export markets.

By Alfonso Kasongo

With this investment, Zambia is on track to produce a target of 915 metric tons of the product by 2026, representing a 1.2% year-on-year growth since 1973.

Recently, the USAID Africa Trade and Investment Southern African Buy-In Activity awarded Luano Honey a grant of $332,960 to expand its product and market reach.

As of 2021, Zambia was ranked as the 88th largest honey producer in the world, with 853 metric tons produced. Ecuador held the first place, with Canada, Argentina, and Iran taking second, third, and fourth places respectively.

Meanwhile, the association observes that the media remains crucial in providing valuable insights into the impact of international grants on local businesses, as well as highlighting Luano Honey’s journey towards expanding its product and market reach.

Luano Honey, trading as Kapenda Mabula, comes from specific and remote forests of Zambia.

The process of harvesting is done harmoniously to maintain the biological components of the product and the ecology intact.

The company extracts the honey in its original state together with the honeycomb, then carefully separates the product from its comb in a way that preserves the rawness and purity of the honey with absolute precision.

Honey is a sweet and viscous substance made by several species of bees, the best-known of which are bees. It is made and stored to nourish bee colonies. Bees produce honey by gathering and then refining the sugary secretions of plants (primarily floral nectar).
