Incofin Investment Management Invests $1.55 Million in Truk Rwanda and Couvoir Amar to Boost Agribusiness and Nutrition
Incofin Investment Management has announced two strategic investments totaling $1.55 million under its Nutritious Foods Financing Facility (N3F), aimed at enhancing food systems and improving access to nutritious food.
The first investment targets Truk Rwanda, a logistics company specializing in cold chain storage and transportation of fresh fruits and vegetables.
N3F’s funding will facilitate the acquisition of refrigerated trucks and the establishment of hybrid cold rooms.
This development will enable farmers to extend the shelf life of their produce, reduce food waste, and maximize their earnings.
In addition, Truk Rwanda plays a vital role in connecting farmers in central Rwanda with vendors while offering informal training on post-harvest handling to help preserve the nutritional quality of their products.
The second investment focuses on Couvoir Amar, a poultry company based in Senegal.
With the goal of increasing domestic poultry production, Couvoir Amar aims to make poultry more affordable for lower-income households.
This initiative supports greater consumption of protein-rich poultry, addressing Senegal’s low levels of poultry intake and contributing to improved nutrition in the region.
Both investments align with N3F’s mission to strengthen food value chains, reduce waste, and improve access to affordable, nutritious food across Africa.
