LIMA AFRICA is an agritech company registered and incorporated in Tanzania. Our goal is to transform food systems in Africa by converting agricultural and organic waste into alternative insect-based livestock feed and organic fertilizer.
This approach helps reduce the pressure on fishing for feed, lowers farm input costs for farmers, increases soil nutrients, and improves profitability for smallholder farmers while addressing climate action.
Our mission focuses on bio-conversion processes carried out by Black Soldier Fly (BSF) Larvae. These processes transform food waste into a high-protein body mass of BSF larvae, which we then process further into BSF products such as Live BSF larvae, Dried BSF larvae, and organic fertilizer.
The BSF solution effectively addresses two problems at once, providing a dual benefit for waste management and sustainable agriculture.


At LIMA Africa, we are dedicated to transforming agriculture through sustainable practices that promote a circular economy. Our innovative solutions focus on converting organic waste into valuable resources, such as protein feed from black soldier fly larvae and organic fertilizers. This approach not only reduces environmental pollution but also provides cost-effective and eco-friendly alternatives for smallholder farmers.
We understand the critical role smallholder farmers play in feeding communities and driving local economies. LIMA Africa is committed to enhancing the livelihoods of these farmers by providing affordable and accessible protein feed and fertilizers. Our products help reduce farming costs, improve soil health, and increase crop yields, ensuring farmers can thrive in a changing climate.
Our initiatives are designed to address both the adaptation and mitigation aspects of climate change. By offering sustainable alternatives to conventional fertilizers and feed, we help farmers reduce their greenhouse gas emissions and build resilience against climate variability. Our efforts align with global climate goals, contributing to a sustainable future for agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa.
