Business Profile - Java Foods




Java Foods is a proudly Zambian company founded in 2012 with the objective of providing convenient, affordable, and nutritious foods made from local ingredients.

We began operations as a trading and distribution company selling our own brand of noodles – eeZee Instant Noodles, before going into manufacturing. Java Foods now manufactures cereal – eeZee Supa Cereal (a high-energy protein cereal) and Num Num Snacks (corn puffs) from our factory in Lusaka.



Monica Musonda - Java Foods Zambia CEO

We believe that buying local Zambian products first is very important because it builds our economy. By choosing to buy Zambian first, we make Zambia a priority simply by choosing to support one another. 



Why is this important?
Zambia is a young nation and we believe that building a nation requires a diverse and sustainable local economy. Everybody has a different role to play in making Zambia a great place to live for all her people.

By buying Zambian first, we do not just help build up our economy and create employment for our people – we create a sense of pride and confidence in ourselves. We set a positive example for our children and help them understand that together we can achieve anything.

National development is important, but what is more important is that every Zambian can live a life of dignity, free of extreme poverty and deprivation. 

Too often do we look to Government and foreign donors to solve challenges that we are more than able to overcome as individuals and as a people. Every country that has grown into a self-sufficient, prosperous nation has done so based on the efforts of all its people. Local business is the foundation of such success.

Why buy Zambian first?
To us, it is the same as asking why you should send your children to school. Without developing our own strength and resources we fall short of the blessings and potential that our country has been endowed with. 

Without local industry we condemn ourselves, our children and future generations to continue suffering, servitude and unfulfilled potential.

More importantly, we see this same seed of change and greatness in our customers. Currently, eeZee noodles are currently the leading noodle brand in Zambia all because our customers chose to buy Zambian first. Thanks to this we now also produce a nutritious instant cereal – eeZee Supa Cereal and corn puffs – Num Num Snacks.  All of this is possible because Zambians are beginning to believe in local products, brands, and themselves. 

Greatness starts at home. World-class products and prosperous nations started with a commitment to self-reliance. In Zambia and as Zambians, this is where we begin our journey into greatness. 

When you buy local first, you buy into a great prosperous future for yourself, your family, and our beloved motherland. Our potential is limitless; now let us show the world what we are made of!


Buy Zambian first proudly... always and forever!

Elon Musk swoops down on Twitter with $41 bln cash offer

Elon Musk has offered to buy Twitter for about $41 billion in cash, saying the social media company he has often criticized needs to go private to see effective changes.

Musk's price of $54.20 per share, which was disclosed in a regulatory filing on Thursday, represents a 38% premium to Twitter's April 1 close, the last trading day before Tesla CEO's more than 9% stake in the company was made public.

The billionaire rejected an offer to join Twitter's board earlier this week after disclosing his stake in the company, a move which analysts said signaled his intention to take over the company as a board seat would have limited his stake to just under 15%.

"Since making my investment I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company," Musk said in a letter to Twitter Chairman Bret Taylor.

Musk, who calls himself a free-speech absolutist, has been critical of the social media platform and its policies, and recently ran a poll on Twitter asking users if they believed the platform adheres to the principle of free speech.

"My offer is my best and final offer and if it is not accepted, I would need to reconsider my position as a shareholder," Musk added.

Twitter will review Musk's offer with advice from Goldman Sachs & Co and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, a source told Reuters.

The company's shares jumped 12% in premarket trading, while those of Tesla fell about 1%. The total deal value was calculated based on 763.58 million shares outstanding, according to Refinitiv data.

Musk has amassed over 80 million followers since joining the site in 2009 and has used the platform to make several announcements, including teasing a go-private deal for Tesla that landed him in hot water with regulators.

He has also been sued by former Twitter shareholders who claim they missed out on the recent run-up in its stock price because he waited too long to disclose his stake. 

Twitter's lower-than-expected user additions in recent months have raised doubts about its growth prospects, even as it pursues big projects such as audio chat rooms and newsletters to end long-running stagnation.

"It would be hard for any other bidders/consortium to emerge and the Twitter board will be forced likely to accept this bid and/or run an active process to sell Twitter," Wedbush Securities analyst Daniel Ives wrote in a client note.

"There will be host of questions around financing, regulatory, balancing Musk's time (Tesla, SpaceX) in the coming days but ultimately based on this filing it is a now or never bid for Twitter to accept," Ives said.

Musk said Morgan Stanley was the financial adviser for the offer.

"Twitter has extraordinary potential. I will unlock it," Musk said in his letter.

British firm plans to invest $100 million in Zambia mine expansion

British firm plans to invest $100 million in Zambia mine expansion


LUSAKA, April 6 (Reuters) - Britain's Moxico Resources (IPO-MOXI.L) plans to invest $100 million to expand its majority-owned Mimbula copper mine in Zambia, UK Minister for Africa Vicky Ford said on Wednesday.

The investment will create new jobs and increased tax revenues for Zambia's government, Ford said in a statement released by the British High Commission in Zambia while she was on a visit to the country.

Ford was visiting Zambia to launch a new investment model, which she said marked a key moment for Britain's financing of private sector growth and infrastructure across Africa.

"We are committed to supporting countries grow their own economies, bolster private sector investment and trade, and deliver the returns that will support wider socio-economic development," Ford said.

The Mimbula Copper Project is located in Zambia's copper belt on the outskirts of Chingola town, more than 400 km north-west of Lusaka.

The copper-rich deposit is located on a large-scale mining licence held by Moxico Resources through its Zambian subsidiary, Mimbula Minerals Ltd.

Moxico holds an 85% ownership in the licence holding company and 15% is held by Moxico's Zambian partners. The mining licence was granted in May 2017, with a validity for 25 years.
