Why Investing in Fruits is Investing in Nepal’s Future?

In a country blessed with diverse geography and climates, Nepal holds vast untapped potential for fruit cultivation. From juicy mandarins in the mid-hills to hardy walnuts in the mountains, fruit farming can transform rural livelihoods—economically, nutritionally, and ecologically.

At the heart of this transformation lies the Nuts and Fruits in Hilly Areas Project (NAFHA). We believe that investing in fruits isn’t just about harvesting produce—it’s about cultivating prosperity, resilience, and equity in rural Nepal.
