Sina Gerard / Entreprise URWIBUTSO is a leading Rwandan agro-processing company founded in 1983 by Dr. Sina Gerard. From humble beginnings as a small shop, the company has grown into a nationally recognised brand with international distributors. Today, its diverse product portfolio includes Agashya juices, Akabanga chili oil, Akarusho wines, Akanozo flours, Akandi natural mineral water, and hygiene products such as hand sanitisers and hand wash.

Beyond production, Entreprise URWIBUTSO has a strong social impact: it empowers more than 3,000 local farmers with seeds, fertilisers, training, and guaranteed harvest purchases, while also running crop and livestock projects. In addition, the company invests in education and vocational training through the College Foundation Sina Gerard, supporting community development and skills growth.
