Sometimes the most powerful solutions are also the simplest.
Thirty years ago, Nutriset developed Plumpy'Nut, a Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF), a breakthrough that transformed the treatment of severe acute malnutrition. What began as a simple sachet became one of the most important innovations in global health. For the first time, it allowed mothers to treat malnourished children at home. No refrigeration or water needed. It was a real revolution.
Edesia is part of the PlumpyField Network, a group of manufacturers in France, Ethiopia, Egypt, Nigeria, Madagascar, Burkina Faso, Haiti, India and the United States. We help each other along the way with everything from fundraising opportunities to new product formulations to equipment needs. The ecosystem needs a balance of international and local suppliers to make sure we can reach every child who needs our life-saving foods.
Here's to 30 years of innovation, and to the millions more children we can all reach together. 🤍
