About Hadijah Nantambi

Ecolife foods is a limited liability social enterprise that is focused on serving communities through innovation. We are promoting agriculture through scientific research and technology development. We are a multi-disciplinary team working with researchers, innovators, farmers and youth agripreneurs to solve farm challenges. In that regard, we design sustainable technologies to better agriculture while creating employment opportunities in Uganda. Since 2015, Ecolife has designed and developed technologies that tackle various challenges in the agricultural sector. Among these is the eco cold room, a wali-in storage facility designed to reduce fresh food losses that occur during periods of bumper harvest. The solar dehydrator to preserve produce in the dry form for longer storage. Research on organic pesticides and fertilizers to enhance production while conserving the environment. Farmers are consulted in development of the technologies that solve challenges directly affecting them. Once the technologies are out and working, the farmers are then trained on their application.
