Iganachi is the founder of Omia Agribusiness Development Group, an enterprise reducing poverty by providing Ugandan farmers with the means to increase their production.The project does this by providing technical training, quality agricultural inputs such as seeds or livestock, and support to access markets to sell their produce. The organisation currently works in 15 outlets across Uganda and neighbouring regions and shares information more widely through radio adverts and social media.
Iganachi attended the One Young World Summit in Manchester, sponsored by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and has remained in contact with the Ministry ever since. For him, the best part of the Summit was the way his network grew “exponentially.”
By the end of 2024, Omia Agribusiness Development Group had reached 49,494 farmers with its programming. Iganachi is especially proud of the circular economy principles, and that farmers can work with the enterprise from first seed purchase to selling their produce. 92% of farmers in Omia Agribusiness Development Group programming reported increased production, and 89% reported increased income.
