About Us

What makes AgriDev special?

We provide sectoral solutions that address national challenges, and we equip agriculture stakeholders with knowledge and skills to preserve local food systems.

Why clients choose us

We are independent.

Which is why donors use us to verify other people’s work. FAO and the CDR/World Bank have appointed us Third-Party Monitoring Agent on separate programmes. We hold no implementation stake in the activities we verify.

We operate at national scale from a local base.

Our field network covers all Lebanese governorates and districts. Our teams are Lebanese and resident, and reach Arsal, North Bekaa and Baalbeck — areas many international firms sub-contract or avoid.

We are connected where it counts.

Direct working relationships with the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Economy and Trade, the Lebanese Agricultural Research Institute and the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture — and with local authorities, which is what gives our teams field access.

We have built what we advise others to build.

Kanafar is our own food brand and our working research platform — we test value-chain models, post-harvest practices and producer engagement on our own production line before recommending them to a client. It is also where our food-safety practice comes from: GMP and GHP applied in an operating facility, not taught from a manual.
