Sacha Inchi oil
is used
as one of the ingredients
to dissolve
oil spills
________________________________________________________________
Grupo Empresarial Solanco
a huilense company
dedicated to recover and restore
water sources and oil -
contaminated soils,
was selected as the best enterprise of Colombia
in the World Cup Entrepreneurship
(Entrepreneurship World Cup EWC),
organized this year
by the Ministry of Commerce,
Industry and Tourism,
through iNNpulsa.
The twin sisters
Tatiana and Natalia Solano,
an industrial engineer
and the other biologist and chemist,
created this venture
to save the country's ecosystems
affected by oil spills.
For this,
they designed a product called God oil,
or "the oil of God,"
as they call it,
composed of plant extracts and nanocarbons,
which has the ability
to degrade oil
and rapidly decontaminate
areas affected by the substance.

Meeting with
Felipe Buitrago
the economic adviser of
Colombia President
President Ivan Duque
and creator of
The Orange Economy
on Sat. July 27, 2019
_____________________________________________________
Felipe Buitrago
is the
Chief Economic Advisor
to
President Duque
and is the
architect of the Orange Economy
strategy for economic development
in Colombia.
GMS and Inca Worldwide
will present
Sacha Inchi
is the new
Orange Economy of Colombia.
The so-called “orange bonds”
are part of the
Orange Economy,
which refers to a country’s creative industries,
one of
President Iván Duque’s
key proposals
during his campaign
and the first 100 days of his administration.
President Duque
didn’t come up with the idea
of the creative economy — that
would be British theorist
John Howkins —
but he,
along with fellow
Colombian co-author
Felipe Buitrago Restrepo,
wrote the original manual
that lays out the Orange Economy
during his decade at the
Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).
Duque
has since brought on
Buitrago
as an adviser to his administration.

The prestigious money magazine "Dinero"
writes about Inca Worldwide and the CEO
You can read the original Spanish version
https://www.dinero.com/edicion-impresa/negocios/articulo/la-planta-que-puede-competir-en-rentabilidad-con-la-coca/267323
Translated version
The plant that takes away coca from Colombia
Sacha Inchi,
a thousand-year-old but unknown nut,
becomes a replacement alternative
for illicit crops.
Still few plant it,
although there is great potential.
In the middle of the era of superfoods,
a new business opportunity
appears for the countryside and,
especially, for the areas
most affected by illicit crops.
It is the Sacha Inchi,
also known as the peanut of the Incas,
traditionally cultivated in the Peruvian,
Colombian and Ecuadorian Amazon.
Its exceptional properties,
since it contains
one of the highest levels of omega-3 in a vegetable,
have turned it into a fashionable food,
as well as into a key input
for the cosmetic industry.
Their global demand
and the low supply
(Peru is the main producer)
have made this crop profitable.
So much so
that it could substitute illicit crops
like coca.
A Sacha Inchi plant
begins to produce
7 months after sowing,
two months more than coca.
And for
the production of one hectare
a farmer can receive
between $15 million and $18 million,
compared to $20 million of coca,
which makes it a
real substitute.
Nanny Katharina Bahnsen
presides Inca Worldwide,
a firm that promotes Sacha Inchi in the country
and industrializes it for export.
She explains that other crops
with which they have sought to
substitute illicit crops take a long time to
produce the first harvest (such as cocoa or coffee).
But Sacha Inchi not only produces soon,
but, unlike coca,
which is now harvested every three months,
it is produced every month.
Inca Worldwide
buys the crop from some 2,200 farmers
in Antioquia, Chocó, Cundinamarca and Guaviare,
which is equivalent to
about 280 hectares.
Figures from the Ministry of Agriculture
indicate that
in the country
there are some thousand hectares sown,
of which 685 are currently producing.
The Putumayo and the Valle del Cauca
have more planted area
than the rest of the departments.
You can also read:
Peasants who leave illicit crops
will have a discount on trademark registration
In Antioquia
the crop is growing
and there are already 115 hectares sown.
In fact,
the Government allocated money
from the royalties
so that the
Eafit, National and Bolivarian Universities
could carry out a study
about the potential of the crop
in the department.
Jaime Garzón,
Secretary of Agriculture of Antioquia,
argues that this product can be an
important line for the department.
Therefore,
they want to promote it in an orderly manner,
after analyzing the vocation of the land
of the nine regions of Antioquia.
They have realized
that it works in municipalities
affected by the conflict,
such as some of the Magdalena Medio
and Bajo Cauca.
That is why they proposed
to the High Commissioner for Peace
to consider Sacha Inchi
not only as a substitute crop,
but also to promote peace.
How is it consumed ?
The Sacha Inchi plant
generates three main products:
almond, oil and cake.
For its properties
it is considered a very good substitute
for flaxseed oil and fish oil
(it has 17 times more omega-3 than salmon).
In protein
it replaces soy,
egg and dairy products
and is in the growing category
of nutraceuticals,
that is,
medicinal products made
with natural ingredients.
Regarding the cosmetic use,
Sacha Inchi oil serves to care for the skin
as an antioxidant
and leaves it smooth and soft
(without fat).
It works very well as a moisturizer.
It is also used in moderate amounts
for washing and hair treatments.
All this becomes an opportunity
for the country to focus on its cultivation,
with other nations such as China,
which already have 700,000 hectares sown,
and also in its industrial process.
Inca Worldwide operates a plant in Turbo
where it processes the star Sacha Inchi,
as it is harvested,
to a seed, which is then converted into a snack
such as peanuts, flour, milk (such as almond or soy),
tea and a concentrated food for pets.
Bahnsen maintains that
they have already invested US $1.5 million
in the entire process of collection
and production of derivatives
and that they already have customers
at supermarkets in the United States.
They would like to get to Korea or Japan,
where these types of products are very popular.
In 2018,
they exported 239 tons of Colombian Sacha Inchi,
mainly to Peru, Ecuador, Panama, Denmark and
the Netherlands.
The American NGO ACDI / VOCA,
which promotes sustainable economic growth
in vulnerable communities,
highlights the work
of the Agrosolidaria de Florencia (Caquetá)
association in its Colombian chapter.
It stands out that
one of the virtues of this crop
is that it germinates
despite the harsh conditions
of the Amazon-intense rain, incessant heat,
acid soils.
In addition,
as a perennial plant,
it produces crops throughout the year,
which means that producers have
increased their monthly income by almost 50%.
The business model has worked
because Agrosolidaria
guarantees the purchase
of the entire crop from the producers.
And then process it
to produce the oil,
which already has an Invíma registration,
which facilitates its export.
With the Sacha Inchi Colombia,
it can advance firmly
towards an effective strategy
of crop substitution.
Fashion business
Although the Sacha Inchi
is a thousand-year-old plant
cultivated by the Incas,
in Colombia they barely know it,
while US food chains such as Whole Foods
have it on their shelves.
This fashionable food has nine amino acids,
which for experts means
it can replace the meat.
Help with blood pressure
by strengthening the heart;
reduces the levels of cholesterol in the blood;
streamlines brain functions linked to memory,
intelligence and rationing;
It serves as an antioxidant and,
most importantly,
from the point of view of business,
is that they attribute
slimming properties.
According to an investigation
by the US market intelligence agency
Mintel Global New Products Database, the number
of new products containing components called
superfoods has increased more than 200%
between 2011 and 2015.
In addition,
it expects its sales
to exceed US $300,000 million
for 2020 only in the United States.

Sacha Inchi products on Alibaba
compare to the quality of products of Inca Worldwide
China and Vietnam
started growing Sacha Inchi seed
for the last 5 years
but they have failed to penetrate
the market in the USA and Europe.
Sacha Inchi seeds
have a very dry taste
if they are not roasted properly.
Alibaba
has many sites selling Sacha Inchi seed raw
and the roasted Sacha Inchi seeds
but there is no feedback on the taste.
All the Sacha Inchi roasted seed on Amazon
have very poor reviews on the taste.
Peru
has been banned
from selling Sacha Inchi seeds
to South Korea
the biggest buyer
of Sacha Inchi seeds in the world
because the seeds were contaminated.
On 2015-02-11,
the FDA announced that Sunfood
is conducting a recall
on Organic Sacha Inchi Powder
due to possible contamination
with Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin.
The recalled products
were sold under the brand name(s) Sunfood
during an unspecified time period
throughout the regions shown
in the map below.

Inca Worldwide (OTC Pink: QEDN)
announces the green light
to start with the PNUD in January 2018
Inca Worldwide (OTC Pink: QEDN),
GMS and Funge stores
got the green light to start with the PNUD
http://www.co.undp.org/
by the end of January 2018.
The project will be funded
by the government of Colombia.
The initial budget
that Funge stores has proposed to the PNUD
is $1,430,746,100 Colombian Pesos
or $476,915 USD to establish two pilots,
one in Guaviare and one in Putumayo,
two of the most important states or
departamentos in Colombia that
required crop substitution.
The project in Guaviare
will require GMS and Funge stores
to work directly with Farc,
“Armando Ríos” del Frente 1.
The government of Colombia
has allocated $19,000,000 Colombian pesos
or $6,333 USD per family
to do crop substitution.
The project will have required
Funge stores and GMS
to complete the establishment
of the first 200 hectares in Guaviare
and 200 hectares in Putumayo
in 4 months.
After this stage is completed
we can expand to Taraza Antioquia,
which has 4,000 farmers
that are already signed up,
and then to a good portion
of the 96,000 hectares of Coca leaves
that are concentrated in Putumayo,
Guaviare, Nariño
and Norte de Santander.
Kate Bahnsen,
CEO of Inca Worldwide, states:
“This is a very big milestone for our project.
Working directly with the PNUD and having a
project funded directly by the government,
show the support of the government and the
commitment of the government to do substitution
of Coca leaves with Sacha Inchi.”
