Without the support of communities, companies cannot flourish. This is why we prioritise community engagement, focusing on external stakeholders and striving to move beyond conventional business practices.
Investment in local procurement
Zambeef is one of the largest business partners and employers in many rural areas. We actively promote the procurement of locally produced raw materials, resulting in poverty alleviation and sustainable development of these rural economies.
The economic multiplier effect of our policy of sourcing from local small-scale suppliers is significant:
We promote economic stability by encouraging local business networks.
We rely on smallholder farmers to supply us with livestock and produce for processing, distribution and retailing in our outlets.
This system actively raises farmer’s incomes and expands markets and jobs through our nonfarm segments, such as our retail outlets. The money earned by local farmers is reinvested into infrastructure and their families, improving livelihoods.
Education for growth
As an agri-business deeply rooted in the local agriculture and livestock sector, we not only deliver positive economic impact but also place educational support at the heart of our community development efforts. We recognise that education at all levels is essential and support various educational institutions and programmes across the country, enhancing education through infrastructure development and material provision.
In our commitment to education, we have established or continued to support pre-schools, primary and secondary schools in the areas where we operate and contribute to government schools in various regions. Collaborating with higher education institutions ensures a steady supply of graduates and interns for the workforce.
At Mwayasunka Day in Chisamba, near Huntley Farm, we have backed an enhanced education delivery drive. Additionally, Mpongwe Farm Nampamba Private School, situated within the Zambeef Mpongwe Farm estate, is fully operated by us. This school serves not only the children of our employees but also children from the surrounding villages. We employ all the teachers and auxiliary staff and provide all teaching materials and resources necessary for the school’s operation.
Supporting small-scale farmers
We work closely with small and medium-scale farmers across all our operations. Empowering small-scale farmers is integral to our continued success. We support numerous small and medium scale farmers, sourcing a significant percentage of our cattle, pigs, chickens, milk, maize and soya beans from rural areas or through outgrower schemes.
Social Investment
We are committed to social investment in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. We continuously support worthy causes, organisations and charities aimed at poverty alleviation. Our active feeding and donations programme operates across the country, and we support healthcare initiatives by partnering with the Ministry of Health and local councils to address community health needs. Our investment in medical centres and clinics, including maternity wings, underscores our dedication to positively impacting our communities.
Through divisions like Zamleather and Zamshu, we contribute to conservation efforts, in collaboration with the Department of National Parks & Wildlife. We also support tourism and preserving cultural heritage by backing traditional ceremonies in regions where we operate, affirming our commitment to the local communities and the nation's heritage. Our deep engagement in community initiatives is made possible through partnerships with local traditional leaders, such as our chiefs.
