Feasibility assessments, a major business pivot, and judging the next generation of DRC founders. In this Kinshasa Diaries vlog: 🌍 Scouting New Beekeepers I'm on site with landowners who want to become beekeepers. I'm taking you along on how I do a feasibility site assessment—what I look for, what questions I ask, and how I decide if a location has potential. It's not just about land. It's about commitment. About whether someone understands that beekeeping is a long game, not a quick hustle. 📡 Starlink Is a Game Changer We're installing Starlink on the farm. It's transforming how we document, track, and run operations. On the farm, reliable internet isn't a luxury—it's the difference between chaos and control. 🌱 Turning Bad Weeds into Good Business We're removing bad weeds and turning them into biochar. It's not glamorous. But it's resourceful. It's using what we have to build something valuable. The shift is simple: instead of just moving raw product, we're capturing more of the value chain. It's slower. But it's more sustainable. 🎧 Listen to the Nohémie & Co podcast for deeper dives: https://open.spotify.com/show/0zUovni... #MyKinshasaDiaries #Lubembo #Beekeeping #AggregatorModel #HoneyWine #DRCStartups #Entrepreneurship #BuildingInAfrica #NoemiAndCo
