BACK-A-BUSINESS | INVEST IN MMAMOTSWEDI
Grow an Agricultural Business. Build a Rural Economy. Create Lasting Impact.
Meet Botlhale Masito, founder of Mmamotswedi Consumer Goods Company, trading as Fresh & Dried Herbs®—an emerging agricultural and agro-processing enterprise established in 2021.
Fresh & Dried Herbs® produces premium fresh and dried herbs, herbal blends, chilli-infused products, condiments and other value-added agricultural products for the retail, hospitality, food service, health and agro-processing sectors.
But this is about more than herbs.
It is about building a scalable rural value chain.
Botlhale’s vision is to develop an integrated agricultural and agro-processing enterprise that creates opportunities for young people and women, strengthens food security, creates employment and connects rural producers to local, regional and international markets.
