One tea became four: Angbanlife's growth story.

Nimatu Alhassan founded Angbanlife in Tamale with a simple idea: turn traditional sobolo into a tea product with a longer shelf life.

Through training under the BRIDGE-in Agriculture Program in customer-centred innovation and business planning, Nimatu used customer feedback to develop three additional Ghana FDA-approved varieties.

The result? Angbanlife grew its team from 3 to 12 people. Sales that once took a month to move now sell out in a single day during peak demand.

For Nimatu, growth is also about creating opportunities for others:

“Challenges surround young people, but within those challenges are opportunities. If we create solutions that serve our communities, we create opportunities for others too.”
~ Nimatu Alhassan, Founder, Angbanlife

“I am Mercedes Agyemang, CEO of Every Mama’s Dream. We produce nutritious foods for children and adults.

I started the business after my second baby was born. He was a picky eater, so I began experimenting with food at home. When I mixed tigernut with cereals and everyone loved the result, I decided to turn the idea into a business.

But production was challenging because we relied on our own resources, which limited how much we could produce.

When I saw a flyer about the Post-COVID-19 Skills Development and Productivity Enhancement Project (PSDPEP) micro-credit opportunity on ASH Africa’s social media platform, I applied. We were later awarded a GHS 300,000 facility through the programme.

The timing was perfect. We used the funds to purchase an industrial blending machine and dryer, and invested the rest back into the business.

Since then, our production has grown from about GHS 50,000-GHS 60,000 to GHS 120,000. We now have a team of 20 workers and can produce more consistently and meet customer demand on time.

Our goal is to make convenient, nutritious foods that make life easier for mothers and grow Every Mama’s Dream into a household brand.

By this time next year, we hope to have our own distribution van.

What has changed most is our ability to produce at scale and grow with confidence.”
