Corporate Responsibility

Profeeds believes in giving back to the community and empowering our customers with the skills and knowledge to become independent.

Additionaly, being the premier stock feed manufacturer in Zimbabwe, a second pillar of CSR is geared towards animal welfare projects and wildlife conservation. We have collaborated with strategic partners, which allows a greater reach as well as giving our community beneficiaries exposure to skilled experts in their fields.
