Atla sa Temo Millers: Molepolole-Based Company Champions Local Sorghum and Indigenous Foods. Atla sa Temo Millers, a proudly 100% citizen-owned enterprise, is making significant strides in Botswana’s agro-processing sector through the production of high-quality sorghum-based foods and indigenous grains. Based in Molepolole, the company is operated by a dynamic team of young Batswana committed to authentic food manufacturing and local economic development.

Specialising in sorghum products such as Bopi ja Mabele, Mosutlhwana, and Ntlatlawane, Atla sa Temo has positioned itself as a trusted brand delivering good-tasting, well-textured traditional foods with strict adherence to food industry standards. The company’s mission is to replicate the natural authenticity of Botswana’s indigenous grains, while commercialising their use in everyday meals across homes, retailers, and hospitality sectors.

Beyond sorghum, the company also processes and packages Lebelebele (Millet Meal), Korong (Wheat Meal), Cowpeas, Sugar Beans, Groundnuts, and Mixed Fowl Feeds, making it a key player in the revival and value addition of locally sourced crops.

For entrepreneurs and retailers in Botswana, Atla sa Temo Millers represents an inspiring example of youth-driven innovation in agro-manufacturing. The company not only contributes to food security and rural sourcing but also aligns with national calls to support local production under initiatives like #PushaBW.

With its operations rooted in the Molepolole Old Industrial Site, the company continues to expand its reach while staying grounded in quality and tradition. Local buyers, stockists, and suppliers are encouraged to partner with Atla sa Temo to strengthen the value chain for Botswana-grown food products.
