Ikirezi Natural Products

Ikirezi Natural Products is a community-interest business that partners with small associations/cooperatives of farmers in Rwanda to produce high quality geranium oil for local and international markets. Our vision is to be a leading supplier of essential oils and other natural plant products that maximizes profits to small farmers, holistically transforms communities, and strengthens agribusiness in Rwanda. Benefiting from the country’s excellent growing conditions, Ikirezi mobilizes and trains farmers to grow healthy plants in Rwanda’s central and northern highlands. Ikirezi then purchases the harvested plant materials, distills the essential oil, and markets the finished product. Ikirezi primarily works with widows and orphans in a holistic effort to restore their dignity, improve their livelihoods, and rebuild their communities.
