From paddy fields in Shinyanga to plates across East Africa — Gumire Group is building the continent's most integrated agribusiness and agro-processing enterprise. Premium rice, cereals, and the technology to connect every farmer to every market.
Gumire Group Limited is a 100% Tanzanian-owned, multi-sectoral agribusiness enterprise headquartered in Dar es Salaam. Through our flagship Best-Rice brand, we have built a trusted distribution and processing network moving premium cereals from farm to plate across East and Central Africa.
We are not simply a trading company. We are an integrated value chain architect — sourcing directly from farmers, milling and processing in-country, and delivering branded, finished goods to institutional clients, retailers, and export buyers across 6+ countries.
Each division is purpose-built to capture value at every link of Tanzania's agricultural chain — and beyond.
Tanzania's premier rice brand. We source, mill, package and deliver Grade 1, Super, and Standard rice to 20+ institutional buyers across Dar es Salaam and export to 6 East African markets.
Building Tanzania's next generation of agro-processing infrastructure. Our upcoming 30 TPD Grade One milling plant in Didia, Shinyanga will set a new benchmark for quality, yield, and throughput in the region.
The future of East African agricultural trade. Gumire-Soko connects farmers directly to buyers, integrating real-time logistics to eliminate post-harvest losses and create instant market access for every producer.
Each grade is processed through a 10-stage milling line — pre-cleaning, destoning, husking, milling, grading, polishing, and CCD color sorting — delivering rice that meets international export standards.
We are building the future of East African food supply. Gumire-Soko is a digital marketplace platform that directly connects smallholder farmers — rice, maize, beans, edible oil, eggs, fish and more — to real-time demand from buyers, restaurants, institutions, and exporters.
"Tanzania leads East Africa in rice production and consumption — yet the majority of paddy value is lost to low-yield processing and poor supply chains. Gumire Group exists to change that."— Gumire Group, Strategic Overview 2025
Through Gumire-Soko and direct farm-gate sourcing, we ensure farmers receive fair, transparent prices and immediate payment — eliminating exploitative intermediaries.
By integrating fast logistics with real-time demand matching, Gumire-Soko dramatically reduces post-harvest losses — keeping more food on Tanzanian and East African tables.
Our milling plant, distribution operations, and Gumire-Soko platform will directly employ 50+ Tanzanians, with thousands more supported across our farmer and transporter networks.
We are building Tanzania's industrial capacity — moving from raw material export to finished-goods export. Grade 1 packaged rice, processed cereals, and branded products that earn premium prices globally.
30+ tonnes/month in Dar es Salaam with 20+ established institutional accounts — we deliver, consistently, on time, every time.
Grade One processing: no stones, consistent grain size, superior shine, long shelf life, and excellent aroma. TBS-compliant for domestic and export markets.
Pay-As-You-Consume (PAYC) installment options with up to 30-day credit for verified institutional buyers. We grow with our partners.
From paddy sourcing in rural Shinyanga to doorstep delivery in Dar es Salaam and export to Nairobi, Kampala, and Kigali — one partner, complete solution.
Gumire-Soko will be the region's first agri-marketplace with integrated real-time logistics — making us the most technologically forward agribusiness partner in East Africa.
From 1.5 T to 30+ T per month in under 3 years. Our trajectory is steep, our market opportunity is vast, and our execution is proven.
Whether you are a buyer looking for reliable cereal supply, an investor interested in Tanzania's fastest-growing agribusiness, a farmer wanting to access markets through Gumire-Soko, or a logistics partner — we want to hear from you.
