Our Impact
Good for businesses. Great for the planet.
We measure ourselves by food kept saleable, diesel never burned, and the livelihoods of the traders who depend on us — and we publish a number only once it is sourced.
How we report impact
We publish a figure only once we can say where it came from, how it was calculated and what period it covers. Our impact measurement is being independently reviewed, so the headline numbers are held back until that review is complete rather than estimated here.
What we can state today: our cold rooms run on solar with no on-site diesel generator, each Ecoflow unit holds up to 10 tons, and traders use them to hold stock instead of selling at a loss. Ask us for the methodology if you need figures for a report or investment review.
SDG Alignment
Building toward four of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Our work is rooted in measurable, climate-positive outcomes. Each Lighthouse facility maps directly to the SDGs that matter most to African food security.
Zero Hunger
Every ton kept fresh is a ton that reaches a table — protecting Nigeria's food supply at its most fragile point.
Affordable Clean Energy
Solar powered and off-diesel. Cooling powered by the sun, not the pump.
Responsible Consumption & Production
Cutting post-harvest losses keeps food out of landfills and capital in the hands of producers.
Climate Action
Replacing diesel-run cooling with solar avoids fuel burn and the emissions that come with it.

Our Values
What we stand for, every shift.
Sustainability
We chose solar not just because it is cheaper to run, but because it is the right thing to do.
Reliability
On-site security, scheduled maintenance, and solar infrastructure that does not depend on the grid.
Affordability
Cold storage should not be a luxury. Our pricing protects everyday market traders, not just large businesses.
Community Impact
Every ton kept fresh is income protected — a family fed, a trader's livelihood secured.
Before Lighthouse, I was losing fish and money every other day. Now I store for a longer period and I'm not pressured to sell out of fear of wastage.
