Who we are

Tanmia, an Arabic word meaning to grow, to develop.

Tanmia Consulting is a distinguished international consulting firm founded by two senior development professionals with decades of experience leading transformative food systems, and supply chain initiatives, building resilience across Africa. We specialize in designing and implementing high-impact projects that drive sustainable growth, empower millions of smallholder farmers and MSMEs, and strengthen market systems through inclusive approaches in complex, high-risk environments.

With a unique blend of strategic vision, operational excellence, and innovative approaches, Tanmia Consulting partners with donors, governments, NGOs, community organizations, and private sector leaders to shape resilient food systems and economic recovery solutions that endure shocks and stresses.

Our Mission

We work to catalyze resilient, inclusive, and innovative food systems in Sudan and across Africa delivering agile, evidence-driven solutions that bolster livelihoods, strengthen supply chains, and unlock private sector potential for sustainable growth.

Our Team

Tanmia Consulting’s leadership and technical team offer decades of experience across Sudan, East Africa, the Horn of Africa, and broader African markets, with a proven ability to lead and manage multi-million-dollar, donor-funded portfolios.

Our team has worked extensively with multilateral institutions, bilateral donors, and international NGOs, maintaining close coordination with government counterparts, UN agencies, private sector actors, CGIAR centers, and community-based organizations.
