Research & Consultancy Unit – Operational Process
This is the first department that was created by the company. The aim was to research into the healing properties of indigenous Ghanaian herbs and foods, and traditional packaging materials that had been employed over the years to enhance healing. The mandate of this section encompassed ascertaining the nutritional properties, healing properties and the efficacy of unpackaged and already packaged herbal products presented by clients, and to assist in all FDA accreditation procedures. Today, the activities of this department embrace coaching in the establishment and management of herbal clinics and wellness centers.
