Sanku’s goal is to reach 100 million people with fortified flour by 2030. To date, Sanku has already helped more than 790 Tanzanian and Kenyan millers to fortify their flour, feeding 4.5 million people. With support from the scale-up programme, Sanku is expanding and aims to expand its reach even further and run a pilot in Kenya, where malnutrition is a serious public health concern.
Sanku enables small-scale, rural millers to sell branded, fortified flour at the same costs as standard flour. Sanku lends a patented machine that allows for precise dosing and remote monitoring.
By buying at scale, Sanku is able to offer millers fortification premix and branded flour bags for the same price millers currently pay for bags only. Sanku is a Life You Can Save Best Charity, was recognised by the Rolex Awards for Enterprise, The Elevate Prize Foundation and Time Magazine for its work to end hunger.
