Avoglow was born from a simple belief, "When we create value from every avocado, everyone benefits."
What began as an effort to support avocado-growing communities in Uganda has grown into a wellness brand built on sustainability, innovation, and impact. Through premium avocado-powered hair care, skincare, and wellness products, we create reliable markets for farmers while transforming one of nature’s most nourishing fruits into products that improve everyday wellbeing.
Our vision goes beyond beauty and wellness. We believe in a circular approach that reduces waste and unlocks the full potential of every harvest. From premium cold-pressed avocado oil to innovative products like AvoChai, we continually explore new ways to create value from resources that might otherwise be discarded.
Today, Avoglow represents more than products, it represents healthier lives, stronger farming communities, environmental stewardship, and a commitment to creating lasting value from every avocado.
Behind every Avoglow product is the experience, innovation, and agricultural expertise of Atari Farms.
Founded to create greater value from locally grown avocados, Atari Farms works closely with farming communities to build sustainable markets, promote responsible agricultural practices, and unlock new opportunities from every harvest.
While Avoglow focuses on premium wellness and beauty products, its roots remain deeply connected to the communities and farmers who make it possible. This connection allows us to combine natural wellness with meaningful impact, creating products that are good for people, beneficial for the environment, and valuable to farming communities.
The story of Avoglow begins in Eastern Uganda, where Founder Idi Mukasa Bate witnessed firsthand both the potential and the challenges of agriculture. Growing up, he watched his mother support their family through growing and selling vegetables, an experience that revealed how hard farmers work and how often receive too little value in return.
Years later, with a background in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, Idi began looking at agriculture differently. He saw that the challenge was not simply production, but what happened after harvest. Valuable produce was being lost, underutilized, or sold with little value captured by the farmers who grew it.
In 2019, he founded Atari Farms to help smallholder farmers access better markets and create more value from what they produce. As the business evolved, a simple question emerged:
That question inspired the creation of Avoglow.
Today, Avoglow transforms avocados into premium cosmetic and wellness products while embracing circular innovation. From cold-pressed avocado oil to AvoChai, made from upcycled avocado seeds, every product reflects a belief that sustainability and value creation can go hand in hand.
Through Atari Farms, the company now works with more than 1,500 smallholder farmers, creating opportunities for communities while building a future where agriculture generates prosperity, reduces waste, and restores the environment. Because at Avoglow, every harvest holds more value than we currently capture.
