Rooted in Zanzibar · Sourcing across Tanzania

From Tanzanian farms to markets worldwide.

We buy coffee, cashew nuts, pulses and grains directly from smallholder farmers, mill and pack in our own plant, and supply retailers and wholesalers around the world.

Chei Chei Foods Products Limited

We are a Tanzanian food company that runs the whole chain ourselves - from the farmer's field in Ruvuma Region, through our mill and packing lines, to shelves and buyers worldwide.

Owning every stage means the grain we buy is the grain we mill, and the quality a buyer sees on day one is the quality they get on every order. Alongside our own products we trade a wide range of Tanzanian crops and run storage and transport for the sector.

Our roots

Rooted in Zanzibari heritage, trusted worldwide.
