Growing Agriculture. Connecting
Markets. Creating Opportunities.
Mash-ink Investments Limited was born from a simple but powerful belief: agriculture should work for the people who grow the food.
Who are we?
We are a Zambian agribusiness and event management company working at the crossroads of farming, trade, and development. From our fields in Mpongwe and Chongwe to national agricultural exhibitions, we are building platforms that connect farmers to markets, investors, technology, and opportunity.
Our role is not just to farm—but to open doors for agriculture to become a business of dignity, scale, and sustainability.
Our Business Division
Agribusiness & Crop Production
Our focus is simple: increase productivity, strengthen food systems, and unlock value across the agricultural chain.
Backyard Garden
In urban areas, we have embarked on a project that aim to encourage backyard gardens in Lusaka.
Agricultural Events & Market Platforms
We believe markets are built, not found. That is why we create and manage agricultural platforms that bring the sector together.
Market Development & Future Growth
We are a registered broker under the Zambia Commodity Exchange (ZAMACE).
Our Commitment
To achieve Key Production Targets by 2030/2031, both the Government and Private Sectors must work hand in hand. We are grateful for the Public-Private Partnership. We aim to promote Mpongwe District Agricultural potential.
Impact of the Mpongwe Agricultural Expo on the Region
We are fully aware that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. With this understanding, we have taken the first steps in building a platform that is already beginning to make a meaningful impact across Mpongwe District and beyond.
One of the most significant outcomes of the Mpongwe Agricultural Expo has been its ability to inspire and engage young people within our communities. Many children and youth who participate in the preparation and activities surrounding the Expo are beginning to see new possibilities for their future. Through exposure to agriculture and innovation, they are developing the belief that they too can achieve great things within their villages and on their farms.
Beyond inspiration, the Expo has also played a facilitative role in strengthening agricultural partnerships and expanding access to opportunities in the region. We are proud to have facilitated the entry of One Acre Fund into Mpongwe, including introductions and engagements with two Senior Chiefs of the district—Her Royal Highness Senior Chieftainess Lesa and His Royal Highness Senior Chief Kalunkumya. This engagement has helped deepen relationships between key stakeholders in traditional leadership and agricultural development partners.
Additionally, the Expo created a platform that enabled Luanshya Agro to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and be listed as a major vendor under the Public Service Micro Finance Company (PSMFC) in the region. Both organizations participated as exhibitors at the Expo, contributing to knowledge exchange, market access, and collaboration within the agricultural value chain.
Looking ahead, it is our sincere hope and commitment that we will continue to play a catalytic role in facilitating new opportunities, particularly within the emerging Lobito Corridor, ensuring that Mpongwe becomes a strong hub of agricultural transformation and inclusive growth.
