Maní+

Maní+ is rated 3 out of 5 in the category food production. Read and write reviews about Maní+. Maní+ is a social business that offers an innovative and holistic approach to combating chronic malnutrition in Guatemala. We have developed a locally-sourced and nutrient-rich supplementary food customized to the specific nutritional needs of Guatemalan children. Our Ready To Use Supplementary Food (RUSF) is accompanied by a culturally-appropriate educational model for caretakers and programs to help farmers produce high-value products for new markets. While our sales are currently directed toward NGOs, we will be bringing various highly accessible, malnutrition-fighting products to the free market in early 2019. Our model is based on financial sustainability through sales at affordable prices, with all surplus revenues re-invested into the business to further advance our mission. The Maní+ Project is the result of a collaborative effort between Ted Fischer of the Vanderbilt Center for Latin American Studies, the Instituto de Nutrición de Centroamérica y Panamá (INCAP), and other key players.
