Avi Niger is a greenfield poultry project, located in Niamey, Niger. Their main output is eggs, which are sold to distributors and hotels in Niamey. Next to this poultry activity, there is some small income from animal feed production, manufactured in their own installations.

Impact Story

My life was a nightmare

21-01-2019

The story of Myriama is a typical one, where people - through no fault of their own - are experiencing hardship but are trying their hardest to overcome it. These people often only need a little push in the right direction - like the availability of affordable eggs to make omelets from. And that’s the kind of impact BIO is looking for.
