Initiatives at Hero Middle East & Africa

One of the signature products of Hero Middle East & Africa is honey. In a long-term project in cooperation with the Egyptian Ministry of Agriculture, NGOs and policy makers, the team engaged in a holistic program to help save the Egyptian honey-bee from extinction. Part of their work involves helping farmers switch to approved, non-harmful treatments and educating beekeepers about risk factors and conservation methods.  as well as beekeeper education on risk factors and conservation methods.

Hero MEA has been partnering with the Department of Bee Research Egypt on the project.

Pollinators play a crucial role for vital ecosystems, fruit variety, and safe food supply.

To raise awareness, the team at Hero Middle East & Africa arranges regular on-ground education sessions for the children of Hero employees in close cooperation with bee-keepers and local fruit farmers.
