Community Impact — Individual Action + Collective Commitment Decent Muntanga's Story: Part 3 Strong communities are built when businesses grow with the people around them. Through the skills he has developed at Munyati, Decent Muntanga regularly gives back to the community — using his experience as a driver and equipment operator to support projects at the local school, delivering building materials at no cost when he is called upon. His involvement reflects a strong sense of responsibility and pride in the community in which he grew up. This kind of impact doesn’t happen in isolation. It is made possible by Munyati's ongoing commitment to empowering its people and investing in the community around it. By employing locally, developing practical skills, and encouraging employees to contribute beyond the workplace, Munyati creates a ripple effect of positive change by responding without hesitation when the community needs it. From supporting schools and health centers, to partnering on community building projects and providing quality housing for employees, Munyati continues to show what a meaningful, community-centered agricultural development looks like. In Decent's words, "[It] feels so nice to be part of the Munyati work force because the company has done so much for the community around." Together, individual efforts and corporate commitment are building a stronger, more resilient community around the Munyati farm. #africanavocado #zambia #investinginpeople #impactinvesting Bruce Hamilton Scott Friesen James de la Fargue Jasmitha Soondarjee Justyna Weyers
