At Future Ventures Ltd. (Cheers Hypermarket), we’re partnering with local farmers embracing these reforms. We’re actively:
โ€‹
โ€ข Expanding shelf space for diversified crops like legumes, mushrooms, and locally grown vegetables
โ€ข Sourcing from farmers using natural, chemical-free farming methods
โ€ข Maintaining stable pricing as private sector storage improves grain markets
โ€ข Supporting Zambia’s vision for climate-resilient food security
When local farmers succeed, families eat better. When supply chains strengthen, prices stabilise. When retail supports agricultural reform, everyone benefits.

Zambia’s food future is being built today, one harvest, one partnership, one shopping trip at a time.
