About Us

Our mission is to turn nature-positive value chains into investable, high-quality supply. From modern apiculture and honey processing to bamboo reforestation and circular crafts, from green-enterprise incubation to market-entry and compliance support, GCIL helps producers meet international standards and reach discerning global buyers. The result is shared value: dignified livelihoods for communities, reliable sourcing for partners, and measurable climate and biodiversity gains.

We work hand-in-hand with smallholder groups, government agencies, NGOs, and impact investors to co-create resilient value chains. Our model blends capacity building, quality assurance, and market-based strategies; ensuring enterprises can generate revenue sustainably while delivering clear, reportable social and environmental outcomes. By aligning with international best practice and buyer requirements, we de-risk participation for partners and accelerate scale.

Partner with GCIL to develop bankable, inclusive, and climate-smart supply from East Africa; built on transparency, performance, and long-term impact.
