Pakistan’s leading food company, Shan Foods has partnered with SHINE Humanity to advance its goal of establishing an accessible and affordable healthcare infrastructure across the Kunri Tehsil in rural Sindh. Adhering to the UNSDG 3: Good Health and Wellbeing, this partnership is a part of Shan Foods’ larger initiative “Growing Flavor”, which aims to build a sustainable agricultural hub in Asia’s largest red chilli production site at Kunri.

Since the pilot phase of the initiative three years ago, Shan Foods has introduced and executed a comprehensive community development plan across Kunri. The company has successfully conducted trainings and workshops focused on sustainable farming skills, providing quality seeds for a higher quality harvest, as well as fruitful trade opportunities that can help the local labor earn better livelihood under better working environments.

“We have an all-encompassing, holistic CSR vision for Kunri, where we not only train farmers and agricultural professionals to improve their chilli harvest and trade systems, but by on-boarding CSR partners such as SHINE Humanity, we are also ensuring that these communities have an improved quality of life, including the basics of healthcare, right in their locality” said Sammer Sultan, co-chairwoman of Shan Foods.

The company plans to further fortify this initiative by ensuring a safe and secure welfare infrastructure across the region, including locally accessible, affordable, and high quality healthcare opportunities for its residents. This recent partnership with SHINE Humanity aims to bring healthcare services right into the village, specifically curated to serve the requirements and health concerns of the underprivileged communities.

“As we embark on this meaningful partnership with Shan Foods, we are committed to bringing quality primary healthcare to the rural community of Kunri, Sindh. Together we’re targeting to uplift the health and well-being of not only those people who work tirelessly in Shan Foods’ chilli farming operations, but the entire community as well by ensuring they have access to the care they need to thrive. The end goal is to create a healthier, more sustainable future, ensuring that those who contribute so much to our food industry are given the care and dignity they truly deserve” said Faheem Khan, Chief Operating Officer, SHINE Humanity.

By having SHINE Humanity as a healthcare partner, Shan Foods’ aims to cater to a community of nearly 1,000 underserved people, which is testament to the company’s broader plans for community empowerment across the region.
