Growing Opportunity: How Everich Green Farm is Transforming Rural Livelihoods in Ghana

For Evans Amosah kwasi, CEO of Evarich Green Farm, agriculture has always been more than a business. Growing up in a farming village, he saw firsthand how livelihoods, education, and health depended on the land.

Recognizing the need to adapt and grow, Evans formalized his business and diversified beyond maize, pivoting into white sesame production as market opportunities emerged. Today, Evarich Green Farm is among Ghana’s premium white sesame producers, expanding international market access while supporting and training more farmers along the way.

Through the Nkabom Collaborative at the University of Ghana, Evans has connected with mentors, investors, and global trade opportunities. Recent engagements have already yielded promising results, including new buyer inquiries from the UAE, Kenya, and Egypt, invitations to international exhibitions, and strategic partnerships focused on climate-smart agriculture and export development.

But the greatest impact is not measured in contracts or trade shows.

It is reflected in the lives of 1,200 smallholder farmers across Ghana’s Northern, North East, and Upper East Regions. Every new partnership helps create better market access, reduce post-harvest losses, strengthen incomes for women and youth, and build a more traceable, export-ready agricultural value chain.

And this is only the beginning. By 2030, Evans and his team aim to train 30,000 smallholder farmers, with 70% being women, helping to strengthen rural economies, create sustainable livelihoods, and unlock new opportunities across Ghana’s agricultural sector.

This is what sustainable growth looks like: local entrepreneurship creating global opportunities while delivering meaningful impact at home.
