NOMADES is a Swiss not-only-for-profit enterprise founded in 1998. Our diverse team of ‘social entrepreneurs’ is composed of technicians, agronomists, engineers, construction specialists, and social scientists.
We work on agricultural, industrial, technological and scientific solutions for a socially responsible development in poor and conflict-affected regions. We specialize in industrial food processing and provide high-end agro-technical tools, public health products, veterinary equipment and Swiss-standards modular construction projects.
Our experience lies in logistical and consulting services, agricultural value chain upgrades, comprehensive food processing projects, innovative packaging solutions, irrigation, ecological power production systems and modular plant construction.
We respect global responsible business standards like the UN Global Compact and the OECD DAC guidelines. We believe that the success of a sustainable and socially responsible business can only be profitable if the personnel are adequately trained, the machinery is of high quality and the business partners operate with a conflict-sensitive attitude.
In order to enable our clients to become entrepreneurs and realize truly profitable and sustainable projects, we provide full guarantee and after-sales services from common regular maintenance to complete overhauls. Therefore, long-term technical knowhow-transfer and constant support are part of our working principles to build a peaceful environment in regions weakened by conflicts.
