Pembe Millers Boosts Food Fortification Efforts Through Training with Millers for Nutrition

Pembe Millers recently collaborated with Millers for Nutrition to enhance the skills of their Quality Assurance team. Nine personnel participated in a specialized training session focused on the essential principles of food fortification, aimed at refreshing their knowledge and integrating these practices into their routine operations.

The training’s primary goal was to provide clarity on four specific qualities related to flour improvers, which are crucial for maintaining high standards in food production. To ensure the training was comprehensive and effective, Millers for Nutrition collaborated with Muhlenchemie, a leader in flour improvement solutions. David Notle from Muhlenchemie facilitated several sessions, sharing valuable insights and practical applications.

Peninah Gitau, Food Fortification Specialist at Millers for Nutrition, co-facilitated the training and emphasized its significance: “This training is not just about compliance; it’s about empowering our millers to produce safe and nutritious food that can significantly impact public health.”

The partnership between Pembe Millers and Millers for Nutrition exemplifies a commitment to quality and safety in food production. By investing in staff training, Pembe Millers is not only enhancing their operational standards but also contributing to the broader goal of improving nutrition across communities.

Through this initiative, Millers for Nutrition continues to play a pivotal role in supporting local millers, ensuring they have the necessary knowledge and tools to fortify their products effectively. This collaboration is a step forward in the ongoing effort to combat malnutrition and promote health through better food quality.
