Norfund invests in Africado
Norfund has recently invested USD 4 million in Africado Limited, Tanzania's first avocado plantation. The plantation is situated on the slopes of Kilimanjaro and has already created jobs for about 100 people, and this number is expected to increase. The plantation creates an alternative source of income for the small scale farmers in the area, where coffee is the dominating product today.

The plantation has 80 hectare available for avocado trees but the plan is to expand to 140 hectare already in 2010, with the aim to involve local farmers in the production. The first harvest will take place towards the end of 2010 before they will be transported on ships to Europe.
