We are a local company with a global footprint. From Rhode Island to Syria, Yemen and Ethiopia, our work touches all of humanity.
“We make the food that saves lives.”
This is a quote from our friend and teammate Freeman Summerville, who worked at Edesia for many years. Sadly, we lost Freeman this year, but continue to honor his simple words that meant so much.
We are confident. We are determined. We are stronger together. Our team has reached over 25 million malnourished children with our life-saving foods and we won’t stop fighting until we reach them all. We believe we can and will eradicate malnutrition worldwide.
