What this zone does
Buyers who walk the orchard do not need to be sold. The Experience Center turns the estate into a place people travel to, and turns visitors into advocates, customers and partners.
Programmes run from a two-hour orchard walk to a three-day buyer residency with cupping sessions, packhouse access and cold-chain briefings.
The eco-lodge and farm-to-table restaurant make the estate commercially viable outside harvest season, and the annual Mango Festival puts Somanya on the regional calendar.
