About HDN

HDN's mission is to teach agricultural techniques and provide products that improve their yields and nutrition. HDN teaches people how to create and sustain long-term economic stability.


HDN aims to introduce trace minerals in Haitian agriculture, increasing yield and nutritional benefits for the produce, livestock, and citizens.


Mineral-rich soil enhancement products have been proven beneficial by scientists. 


Mineral-rich soil produces healthier plants that last longer and taste better. 

 

Mineral-rich fertilizers improve the soil's bioavailability and enhance the soil's quality. It enhances the biological interaction surrounding the roots and allows better delivery of nutrients.


Every level of our life is affected by mineral-rich soil and natural fertilizers. 

 

Scientists in Haiti and the USA will collaborate to create healthier, more effective fertilizers and other soil enhancements. 

HDN links “missing middle” SMEs and micro entrepreneurs in Haiti and the diaspora with investors using online capital formation and life-changing technologies. We also reduce the prohibitively high costs of due diligence using proprietary methods that allow them to use such capital profitably.

 

HDN believes missing middle SMEs have a tremendous opportunity for double-digit growth if armed with the right combination of product planning, market aggressiveness, strategic partnerships, financial resources, operational excellence and a motivated employee base.
