Member of the network since 2006

HILINA was established in 1998 to undertake the manufacturing and processing of a range of food products specifically designed to combat the various forms of malnutrition and other micronutrient deficiencies affecting children and other vulnerable groups in Ethiopia. When it was initially founded, the centre produced Vitamin A enriched sugar as well as iodized salt for UN agencies, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and the general public.

Since then, HILINA has experienced significant growth in terms of both size and capital and has continued to install modern machinery and other equipments, especially to manufacture nutritious Ready-to-Use Foods for children to address the significant gap in the national food production system.

Producing Plumpy’nut® since 2006, HILINA increase in 2010 its production capacity of Plumpy type products to 12,000 MT/year, which enable HILINA to potentially respond to the national needs. HILINA also recently established an on-site food laboratory and has transformed itself into a state of the art and comprehensive food production facility.

Message from the manager

"The Amharic name for Plumpy’nut is 'Nefis Aden' which literally means 'life savor'. While some might regard this as an exaggeration, those who have witnessed the beneficial effects of Plumpy’nut will attest that it is very much a reality. Plumpy’nut is working wonders for severely malnourished children throughout Ethiopia as it is a magic formula and one that we at HILINA are proud to promote. In addition to standing guard for the children of Ethiopia, the fact that 70% of the raw materials required for the production Plumpy’nut are produced locally translates into many positive spin-off effects for the local economy."
