Scaling Up Nutrient Fortification in East Africa
The chapter explores the successful implementation of a machine that fortifies flour with essential nutrients in small mills across East Africa, benefiting 10 million people daily. It discusses food fortification as a cost-efficient solution to hidden hunger, with a focus on providing nutrients through staple foods. The chapter also highlights the social enterprise's sustainable business model that offsets the cost of fortification by selling nutrients alongside items valued by millers, leading to the organization setting up its nutrient premix factory in East Africa for increased sustainability.
