Walali Company Limited

Sustainable food production from local resources
2017 SAG-SEED Award Lauréat-e Sustainable Agriculture Rodrigues Island, Mauritius

Walali Company Limited creates a value chain for agro-processing on Rodrigues Island. Octopuses and red beans are purchased and processed locally. Contracts to be established with individual small-scale suppliers who meet sustainability criteria will ensure a secure market and guaranteed prices for these suppliers.

The retort pouch technology increases the availability of these perishable goods and reduces production and shipping costs. Adding value to bean-based products promotes organic agriculture and preservation of local food traditions. 

Eco-Inclusive Impacts

Walali stimulates the local economy by promoting artisanal fishing, preservation of traditional bean production and creating local production jobs in values-based businesses.
  • Providing income opportunities for the local community in the production factory and as suppliers of raw materials.
  • Strengthening the Rodriguen identity by preserving the traditional cultivation of beans.
  • Increasing local availability of a seasonal grocery.
  • Encouraging sustainable fishing and lagoon protection by respecting octopus recovery times and relying on artisanal fishing methods.
  • Tackling water scarcity by promoting rainwater harvesting among suppliers.
  • Fighting climate change by using a solar water heater for the production site.
  • Supporting stimulation of the local economy and independence from the Mauritius main island by contracting local suppliers - 50 for octopus and 10 for beans.
  • Reducing shipping costs and energy needs through the introduction of the new retort pouch technology.
