The staple is the delivery system.
02Why the staple
Everyone eats bread, porridge, sugar and oil, every day, without a clinic, a campaign or a change of habit. If the nutrient is in the staple, it reaches everyone.
Millhouse engineers the blend so the staple can carry it: dosed to the country's standard, stable through the mill, invisible on the plate. The name is the route. Mill, where the staple is made and the blend is dosed; house, where it is eaten.
Precision
Dosed to the regulation, measured in the mill, reported per batch.
251g/T
Running dose · target 250 g/TIllustrative data
A regulator, a miller and a mother want the same thing from the same bag: the dose the law names, in every kilogram, every day. We blend to the country's recipe, dose at the line and verify at the mill.
Made in Africa, for Africa
Produced locally, supported in person and in the same time zone.

Fortification law is national, and the expertise is knowing each one. We formulate for each country's own standard and ship from a plant on the continent, so a question at a mill in Mozambique is answered the same afternoon, by someone who can drive there.
Proof
A certificate of analysis with every batch; fortification levels monitored digitally.
Certificate of analysis · batch 2411Illustrative data
We never ask to be trusted; we show the reading. Every batch leaves with its certificate, vitamin A is verified at the mill in twenty minutes, and dosing is tracked and reported digitally so a mill, a regulator and the quality team read the same number.

04The blends
Four staples, each to the country's own recipe.
Wheat, maize, sugar and oil, manufactured to the standard each country legislates, from Egypt's wheat to Malawi's maize. And a lab in Dubai for the blends no standard describes.

Illovo Sugar MalawiA turnkey premix plant
Millhouse installed a turnkey premix plant at Illovo's cost, so that Illovo could manufacture its own premix for several mills: a vertically integrated supply chain that keeps the capability, and the margin, in the country.
