Joseph Initiative Lunch & Learn

The Joseph Initiative, Ltd. (JI) is an American-owned grain trading company based in Western Uganda with a social mission to empower smallholder farmers by providing access to agricultural services, financial assistance and fair market conditions. The JI leverages a network infrastructure of rural aggregation centers and centralized processing facilities to achieve supply chain efficiencies and reduce staggering post-harvest losses. Visiting Kellogg from Uganda, JI Managing Partner Benjamin Prinz will discuss the company's innovative business model, its journey from a non-profit pig farm to commercial maize processor, and the challenges and opportunities for social enterprises in developing countries. Summer internship and full-time job openings will also be discussed, including a word from second year Rogerio Campos who spent his summer in Uganda.
