he Barika® distribution project in Burkina Faso was the result of a dual observation. On the one hand, local urban populations needed healthy, high-quality food to prevent nutritional deficiencies. On the other, the distribution of good local products was very inefficient.
With the support of the Nutriset Group, known for its nutritional products and support of agribusiness in Africa, the project was successfully carried out in 2014.
Barika® provides consumers with food products based on traditional Burkina Faso recipes for the preventive care of children and pregnant women in order to support optimal growth. Barika® also provides everyday products and crafts.
They are sold through a store located in Ouagadougou, at food warehouses and through other stores, as well as on the internet.
Barika®'s mandate is to propose healthy products that are innovative and manufactured locally, with stable prices, as well as to maintain close contact with customers, in particular through the Barika® Lab' structure that makes regular consumer surveys and capitalizes on knowledge.
