Background

Xenia Investment is a proudly indigenous Zambian enterprise established in 2020 with a clear purpose—championing environmentally sustainable agriculture. In response to growing concerns about soil degradation and overdependence on chemical inputs, Xenia is leading the shift toward nature-friendly farming. Our mission is to reduce the use of harmful chemical fertilizers and promote safe, effective, and truly sustainable organic solutions that restore soil health, improve crop yields, and safeguard the future of agriculture in Zambia and beyond.

Through continuous innovation and strong farmer support, Xenia has become a key player in promoting eco-friendly farming practices. Our flagship organic fertilizer, Xenfert, has already transformed soil quality and boosted productivity for hundreds of backyard growers, peasant farmers, and small- to medium-scale producers. Alongside Xenfert, we supply microbial soil enhancers and smart farming technologies designed to strengthen resilience, reduce environmental harm, and improve long-term productivity.

As we scale up, our goal is to reach even more farmers—especially backyard growers, peasant farmers, and smallholder producers—ensuring they too benefit from green agricultural technologies that increase yields while protecting the environment. We also aim to collaborate more closely with agro-dealers and agricultural service providers across Zambia so they can expand their product offerings, grow their businesses, and join a fast-expanding organic agriculture network.

To support this ambitious growth, we are seeking a passionate, energetic, and purpose-driven Sales and a marketing officer who believes in the power of smart agriculture and organic solutions. This role goes beyond selling a product—it is an opportunity to help reshape Zambia’s farming landscape, empower local farmers, and strengthen agro-business partnerships nationwide.

If you are enthusiastic about sustainable agriculture, ready to engage farmers on the ground, eager to build strong relationships with agro-dealers, and are committed to promoting innovative organic solutions, then we invite you to be part of this mission.

Apply now and help drive the future of eco-friendly farming in Zambia.
