The company has got a market share of 60% despite the many players in the market.Currently the company covers the entire Zambian market and Manzivalley can be found everywhere.Since it’s inception Natural Valley has always put quality at the forefront and today it’s the only mineral water company that is certified by Zambia Bureau of Standards and has achieved ZS388. This concept has led to the company being awarded several quality awards.In 2004 Natural Valley was awarded the second runner up during the Africa SMME awards in the category of Agriculture, Food and Beverage production held in South Africa. This was followed by yet another award in 2005 in Paris when it was awarded International Gold Star in recognition of outstanding Quality and Excellence.All this would not have been possible without Mr. Stewart Simpson and his very dedicated team at Natural Valley.

Everyone in Zambia, irrespective of socio-economic status, enjoys fish. However, demand for domestic fish for consumption still outstrips production. Government is aware of the direct benefits of fish as a source of food of high nutritional value, especially for vulnerable groups, so the sector is not underrated. The sector, because of its mostly rural setting, continues to contribute significantly to rural development in terms of employment and income generation and reducing poverty. It is estimated that the sector supports more than 300 000 people deriving their livelihood directly as fishers and fish farmers, or indirectly as traders, processors and other service providers.

The Omanhene Cocoa Bean Company

For generations, the family cocoa farms of Ghana have produced beans of wondrous quality. Ghanaian farmers harvest the ripe cocoa pods by hand, ferment the beans between banana leaves right on the forest floor and then dry the beans in the warm African sun. To this day, European and American chocolatiers buy cocoa beans from Ghana and export them to their chocolate factories throughout the world where the famed Ghanaian beans are transformed into some of the world's most delicious and expensive chocolate. Ghana, AfricaNow, for the first time, The Omanhene Cocoa Bean Company is producing world class chocolate entirely in Ghana using beans The Financial Times calls "the finest cocoa in the world." Steven C. Wallace founded the company in February, 1991, at the age of 29 convinced that if Ghana could grow the "world's finest cocoa", it ought to be able to produce some of the world's finest chocolate. Wallace's interest in Ghana began in 1978 when, as a sixteen year-old, AFS high school foreign exchange student, he lived in the town of Sunyani located in the fertile Brong-Ahafo region of the country. His host family was a traditional Ghanaian family consisting of his host father, his three wives and twenty-one children. Omanhene Chocolate Bean CompanyOmanhene has proven itself one of the most successful and creative joint ventures between the U.S. and Ghana. We have won accolades from United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan, Shirley Temple (former ambassador to Ghana) and President Jimmy Carter. We produce value-added gourmet chocolate tailored specifically to export markets resulting in enhanced foreign exchange revenues for Ghana. The sale of Omanhene chocolate results in higher revenues and consequently higher wages for both workers at the chocolate factory and for local cocoa farmers. Since cocoa is a commodity crop, farm incomes in Ghana are subject to world cocoa price fluctuations. Ghanaian cocoa farmers have previously been forced to abandon their farms when world cocoa prices stagnate.
