b. A Sustainable Farmer’s Economy

Keyone International is a socially responsible company where we are adopting “A Sustainable Farmer’s Economy”. We are engaged in upliftment of rural areas. The program focuses on familiarizing the farmers with new methods and techniques of farming through the adoption of newer technologies, and connecting farmers to new markets. Therefore, farmers can increase their income by finding market opportunities where they compete on their skills and quality of product rather than by just offering the lowest price. A stable wage leads to improved living conditions for rural Nepali farmers and their families, and hence break the poverty cycle.

Furthermore, paying fair wages and profit-sharing, educating farmers, and investing part of every purchase into Nepali communities makes a valuable impact.

A purchase from Keyone International does not just get you a delicious, natural and eco-friendly products; it allows you to become a Conscious Consumer, putting your money towards an environmentally and socially friendly product that makes a difference.

Additionally, proceeds from our every sales is directly donated to empower under-privilege children’s health and education.
