Woatome was established in 2019 as an opportunity to structure valuable feedback into the value chain of Ghana’s resources. 

This is an initiative of the Musa Cultural and Heritage Group Lombard, IL USA.

Feedback is materialized as micro-innovative solutions, viable with modern technology, designed with and for Ghana’s own essential workers.

When patrons choose Woatome for primary and semi-processed resources, they support sustainability and advancement campaigns- necessary components for the future of commodity trade and the Agri-eco-health of West Africa and beyond.

MICRO INNOVATIONS

Leveraging Modern Technologies, Alternative Pathways, Creative Arts & Will to add value for the

West African Farmer

AND BEYOND

Woatome International is a "BEFORE PROFIT" organization with the aim of leveraging modern technologies and strategies to bring value to the agricultural, art, and micro-innovations segment of West African communities. This is a strategic initiative by the Musa Cultural and Heritage Group located in the United States of America.

Fundamentally, the Musa Group is making an attempt to introduce micro solutions to the cocoa crises the world is just taking note of. Operational as a licensed export company, our strategy lies in curating products that we believe will be highly appreciated in foreign markets.

Revenue generated from such sales funds our technological innovation attempts for West African farmers especially

Our process begins with the community of artisans, innovators, farmers, and local craft makers who are the resources that Woatome has networked and partnered with; as an intermediary to ignite their products to an excited market.

This means we fund the production by purchasing raw materials needed by the artisans, who then produce our products to our specifications of very high standards for an inflated fair trade work pay.

We therefore engage in training and infusing state-of-the-art mindedness to the artisans. This ensures that our curated products exceed the competitor value in the market.

Our founders bring in from the United States market, two decades of corporate industry experiences, high academia, software and technological knowledge, supply chain management, data and predictive analytics, enterprise resource planning, creative art, operations and sales savviness into this model.

Our end goal is to leverage these resources to tackle environmental damages to forests.

Most of these lands are traditionally designed for cocoa production, but gold miners successfully lure cocoa farmers to sacrifice their lands for a meager figure.

This is possible because of low yield which can strongly be attributed to poor and lack of prompt support for farmers.

Our technological solutions will provide a central resource, advisory, training, and help center remotely accessible by farmers 24/7.

Our strategic partnership with The Musa Group USA was coined with one intention: to curate ethically sourced agricultural products from Ghana to share with the world.
