PELCOMO works with rural families following ecological farming practices to create local, value-added foods that are healthy and affordable. Products include dehydrated fruits, vegetables, and herbs, cassava flour, spices, kithul jaggery, and sesame sweets. They are currently collaborating with the Kadanhene Saubagya Production Village on a dehydration project to benefit low income families and uplift the rural economy. PELCOMO trains suppliers on cultivation and harvest practices to improve quality and minimize waste. They also select and train local agents to distribute products door-to-door in their own communities. This distribution system enables them to educate potential customers about product quality, offer low direct-to-consumer prices, and create livelihood opportunities for low income groups. Products are provided at discounted rates to employees, nonprofit organizations, and people in need. PELCOMO separates, recycles, and tracks their factory waste. They are working to develop environmentally responsible packaging solutions.
