Ceris is passionate about African Agriculture’s ability to empower and uplift. She established Lonrho Zimbabwe’s CSI and Ethical policies from the ground up, including training up a team who were then able to implement and execute the policies. Ceris’ great strength is the ability to engage and motivate all levels of people to support and adopt the initiatives. She achieved great results in achieving the accreditations required to export fresh produce the most demanding retail markets in the world.
Ceris Consulting undertook an Environmental, Social and Governance review of our retail operations and egg-laying business. The operation was small and owner-managed and required practical solutions that could be implemented to ensure the required guidelines and standards would be met as the business expanded. The companies are based in Mozambique, so there are added challenges to consider. We are now 18 months into the expansion program and have put into practice what was suggested in the report which has satisfied our external investor requirements. In addition to the report content, other background information provided, which is still relevant and useful as a reference point when required.
