Is It Vital to Care About People in the Supply Chain?

“Everyone is created in the image of God and worthy of respect, worthy of dignity.” Jon Halverson Talanton Partner


We are grateful to C12 for capturing Talanton’s story of impact through this powerful video. C12 developed the video for its curriculum in May. It was part of the educational content at all C12 Business Forums across the nation. The video shares:

  • Why it’s important – and strategic – to care for farmers and suppliers as true partners.

  • The impact of Talanton ministering to Kentegra, then Kentegra ministering to its farmers.

  • Talanton’s mission in East Africa to achieve eternal return.

Talanton’s mission is to help people in developing countries lift themselves out of desperate poverty through good jobs and Hope.


Employment growth in the Talanton portfolio since its inception in 2019 has grown to more than 15,000 farmers and direct suppliers, plus full-time employees and part-time workers.

“It’s the closest thing to a full-time job many of these farmers have ever had. We’re seeing life change.”

Brian McKenzie Kentegra CEO

That’s the power of the Gospel in action.

God’s blessings,

David and the Talanton Team
