Reimagining Cassava

Cassava is a root vegetable that serves as a valuable source of nutrition for more than 500 million people living in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. However it has remained a subsistence crop and its products have been limited to local markets due to rapid spoilage post-harvest (between 48 – 72 hours) and  traditional processing methods riddled with inefficiencies.

CassVita partners with a cooperative of over 300 farmers in Cameroon to create shelf-stable and competitively priced Cassava products, commercializing the vegetable on a larger scale. By doing so, we aim to improve the lives of African farmers and to create full stomachs across the world.
