    With a grant from USAID's Agribusiness Accelerator Program, Vivi Oil received two filling machines to automatically fill bottles, a step that used to be done manually.

    Investing in local businesses like Vivi Oil not only helps support the local economy but also contributes to a better future for the community.

    Buy xomali today, invest in a better tomorrow!
