We're thrilled to announce a major new chapter in Uganda’s agricultural landscape: AAA Farms and Ranchers Finest have joined forces to create Finest Farms.
This isn't just a business merger; it's a strategic alliance built on a foundation of shared vision and mutual trust, bringing together expertise from the field all the way to your dinner table.
Finest Farms is founded by three leaders committed to creating a resilient, high-quality food system in Uganda:
For over a decade, the founders of AAA Farms built one of East Africa’s most impactful artisan supply chains, connecting rural communities to global brands. That work taught them a powerful lesson: real impact starts with investing in people and creating stable, high-value markets. This philosophy transitioned into agriculture to address Uganda’s fast-growing demand for pork and animal feed.
The driving force behind this alliance is the immediate and powerful synergy between the two companies.
Ranchers Finest has established itself as a benchmark for processing, packaging, and distributing safe, high-quality meat in Uganda, serving customers through its trusted brands, Ranchers Finest and Betar Butcher. Their challenge, however, lay in keeping pace with their own success.
Stephan Duyck, Founder of Ranchers Finest, explains the critical need for this partnership:
"One of Ranchers Finest's hurdles has been to grow supply at the same pace as our demand. Demand is rising, but we need traceable, quality meat to match in order to deliver."
This is where the expertise of AAA Farms comes in. Having already committed to building an ecosystem of reliable markets, modern training, and better tools with local farmers, the partnership creates a seamless, integrated supply chain.
The creation of Finest Farms provides a rare opportunity to have control and visibility across the entire journey of the food, establishing a new standard for quality and safety.
Alicia Wallace captures the essence of this integrated approach:
"What I love about this partnership so much is how supply and demand can match and grow seamlessly—straight from the corn farmer, to the animal farmer, to a safe slaughter and cold storage, to processing and your table. We can trace all the careful steps and ensure quality and meat safety."
Finest Farms ensures that the animals raised by our partner farmers enter a reliable system dedicated to excellence, leveraging Ranchers Finest’s decades of expertise in maintaining rigorous processing and hygiene protocols. This coordinated effort guarantees that the hard work of our community translates directly into superior, safe products available to all Ugandans.
This strategic alliance is focused on building a resilient agricultural system driven by local leadership and scaled through powerful partnership. Finest Farms and Ranchers Finest are now operating as mutually supportive entities. We are a shared force of assets dedicated to dominating the space by focusing on what matters most: quality, safety, and community opportunity.
