Show Notes

Nick Hughes is joined by Valentine Shoti of Harare, Zimbabwe who is the Founder of Organut Manufactures. Valentine is also known as Mai Dovi (which translated means Ms Peanut Butter) in her native city of Harare. They are manufacturing Organut butter which is herbal and flavored with 40 varieties formulated to enhance nutrition normally brought by ordinary butter with aid of naturally nutritious plants used to a healthy butter. Nick and Valentine have a very inspirational and touching conversation that talks about How she lost her parents at age of 14, and she had to lead her household and find a way to make her own food natural, organic, healthy to survive. They also touch on her experience at Founders Live Harare when Nick was there in Nov 2019 as well as what she sees as the future of her company to bring natural and healthy food to Zimbabwe and hopefully the rest of the world. You can find Valentine's GoFund me page below if you'd like to help her and Organut Manufactures continue their growth and success so they can have their own manufacturing facilities. This is a very inspiring conversation full of wisdom and insights from a promising African entrepreneur that we hope helps you on your founder journey.
