At Afghanistan Red Gold Saffron Company, we believe that true sustainability goes beyond environmental principles and includes supporting the local communities that play a key role in our work. By investing in people and local economies, we build long-term relationships that benefit everyone and ensure the well-being of the regions where our saffron is cultivated, harvested, processed, and packaged.
One of our core values is empowering farmers and workers in rural areas of Afghanistan, particularly in Herat. Through specialized training programs, we help farmers improve their agricultural skills and teach them the best practices for saffron cultivation, organic farming, and sustainable resource management. These programs not only enhance productivity but also increase the income and quality of life for local farming families
Afghanistan Red Gold Saffron Company contributes to the economic development of these communities by creating significant employment opportunities. We have provided permanent jobs for 70 people and seasonal work for about 2,000 individuals (both men and women). These job.
opportunities, ranging from cultivation and harvesting to packaging, ensure that local people receive fair wages and work in safe conditions, which helps reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of families dependent on saffron farming.
Our commitment to the local community also includes supporting education and infrastructure development. We collaborate with local organizations to support schools, improve access to clean drinking water, and develop local facilities. These efforts strengthen the community fabric, empower future generations, and create a more sustainable future.
Supporting local communities is not only a corporate responsibility but also a recognition of the invaluable role these communities play in our success. By ensuring that our activities have a positive impact on the economy and the people, we strive to create a business model that grows based on shared prosperity and long-term sustainability.
