Lander Prosopis is a socially-responsible company, that aims to fight poverty through employment
We are dedicated to job creation in communities that have significant overgrowth of Prosopis, development of domestic markets, and strategic entry into global markets for products like fodder, charcoal, lumber, and biofertilizer
Lander Prosopis is seeking to provide hundreds of at-will employment opportunities across the country
Given how widespread Prosopis is in the country, the procurement process can be relatively decentralized, and offer per-kilo rates to any member of the community who has access to pods
Similarly, as the company generates greater demand for its charcoal and timber, the company will be able to employ laborers across the country for a well-planned pruning effort that benefits local agriculture in addition to its economic return for the company
By building an effective model for the use of Prosopis, the company will be among the first in Somaliland to generate the lion’s share of revenues from a local natural resource
The company seeks to ensure that the benefits from this natural resource remain in Somaliland, rather than being siphoned off exclusively for the benefit of international processors and distributors
This requires the company to invest in top-notch processing equipment, high-quality packaging and effective distribution networks
Lander Prosopis is seeking to build the foremost distributor of its product lines in East Africa, working hand-in-hand with communities who have been burdened by the overgrowth of Prosopis, to build a prosperous future for Somaliland.
