Company Summary

Rocka Foods (formerly NutriPride) is a B2B group buying platform for small food vendors in sub-Saharan Africa. Our fresh and affordable food products are sourced directly from local farmers and wholesalers, and our products become even more affordable as the vendors invite others to make purchases together. We help alleviate high food prices in sub-Saharan Africa that are 30-40% higher than the rest of the world on a per capita income basis.
