It’s been 60 years since #Zambia gained independence. We have witnessed huge strides in agriculture and processing. We are encouraged by new food brands - home grown and nurtured by Zambian businesses which are growing. Whilst challenges remain, we are encouraged and upbeat about the future. Our CEO Monica Musonda joined other Zambians leaders in business, government and civil society by participating in the filming of a documentary on #Zambia at 60 - what does this mean and what do we have to look forward to. It’s true when they say Until Lions learn to tell their stories, the tales will always glorify the hunter. We look forward to the screening of the documentary on 24 October and sharing great Zambian stories. #storytelling #Zambiaat60

We were really honored to meet Millennium Challenge Corparion CEO Alice Albright and her team yesterday. We also facilitated a round table for other female run & managed businesses so they get a real feel of the challenges and opportunities in agribusiness. A great afternoon full of hope !
At Java Foods, CEO Alice Albright met with founder Monica Musonda to discuss challenges and successes in the agriculture sector. Java Foods, a woman-led enterprise, exemplifies the impact of empowering local entrepreneurs on Zambia’s economy. #EmpoweringWomen #MCCZambia U.S. Embassy Zambia

We are exhibiting at the 96th Agricultural & Commercial Show being held at the Lusaka Show Grounds under the theme "Creating a Competitive Future". We love this time of year because it gives us a platform to tell our story - share our mission, vision & values, discuss the impact we have created (beyond selling millions of packs) and showcase our new products & innovations. This year, we are going to be speaking about how Java Foods pioneered in the instant noodle space way back from 2012 and how we have led the way to create a competitive instant noodle sector in Zambia (there are now 3 locally made instant noodles) focussed on giving consumers high quality, flavourful & nutritious noodles. eeZee Noodles has grown to be Zambia's leading instant noodle brand known for it's high quality, localised flavours & value for money. It has been received many awards & accolades and is a proudly #Zambian product. eeZee Noodles has the largest flavour variants and can be found country wide. eeZee Noodles is also the only instant noodle in #Zambia to carry the ZABS Quality Mark = a brand you can trust. It is now also being enjoyed in Zimbabwe and Malawi. Come & visit our stand and share your eeZee noodles family moments. We love hearing from our customers. #ProudlyZambian #Jobcreation #FoodProcessing #FoodSecurity #instantnoodles #leadingbrands

A great week for us. We had the pleasure to host the new CEO of Partners in Food Solutions Mandla Nkomo Jimmy Bettcher at our offices. It was a great opportunity to showcase the work we have done with PFS over the years and discuss what future collaboration looks like. Just to give you some insight - we have worked with them and Volunteer Corporate Partners on certification. (We are the only instant noodle company in Zambia to be HACCP certification as well as hold the ZABS quality mark), shelf life analysis, factory lay out support, new formulation support to name a few. We describe the business as being in it’s growth stage so the support we are now looking at will focus on new formulations/innovations (what other locally grown raw materials can we use in processing), mentorship support for management & the team (as you know to really scale - you need the right team with a growth mindset!), new markets & linkages, and efficiencies (how can we use digital tools like AI etc). Always great catching up with PFS and we are grateful for their continued support. We are the number 1 instant noodle manufacturer in #Zambia because of their continued support. If you are in food processing & need support, look them up.
