About Us

Created to meet the rising demand for flue-cured Virginia tobacco

Welcome to Zembaleaf Tobacco Company Limited. Established in 2019, our company was born out of the rising demand for flue-cured Virginia tobacco from our clients. After operating for seven years as an out-grower scheme in the Eastern part of Zambia under Tombwe Processing Limited, we recognized the need to formalize our operations and expand our reach. Today, we are proud to offer a range of Agriculture Services, with our main product being Flue-Cured Virginia Tobacco. We also provide Marketing Services and Agro-Consultancy Services to support our clients and partners in achieving their goals. With a dedicated team of over 50 employees, we ensure that our products meet the highest standards of quality and customer satisfaction across the country.

Our mission at Zembaleaf Tobacco is to cultivate a brand that is recognized both locally and internationally while embracing innovation and sustainability. We aim to lead the way in Reduced-Risk Products, offering new approaches to how the tobacco business is conducted. Our commitment to growth is reflected in our focus not only on becoming the fastest-growing company in the industry but also the most forward-thinking and environmentally responsible. By offering services that extend beyond tobacco production, such as Agro-Consultancy, we remain dedicated to excellence and sustainability, ensuring that Zembaleaf Tobacco continues to lead in Zambia and beyond.
