ABOUT US

Aviazure Ltd was formed five years ago by Alasdair Sinton and Roger Barnard. Both are very involved in East Africa and deeply affected by the tragic decimation of the indigenous peoples of Africa highlighted by the effects of HIV/AIDS worldwide.

Roger Barnard, for many years, has been involved both commercially and personally in herbal medicines and presented a proposal to Alasdair Sinton that the properties of Hyproxis hemerocallidia could be an important step forward in the treatment of HIV/AIDS if produced and prepared on a commercial scale and made easily and inexpensively available to AIDS sufferers and would also be a beneficial treatment for a number of other diseases and infections. Clinical trials proved the merit of the herb and the effects seen by the two directors of Aviazure on patients treated with Hypodea was so remarkable in improving the quality of life in a number of patients suffering from different diseases and infections which also include HIV/AIDS, that they invited a number of enthusiastic investors, including themselves, and Aviazure Ltd was founded. Roger Barnard with his technical and farming background started farming the plant in Natal, South Africa, using natural methods of production and drying and organic farming methods. Alasdair Sinton with his organisational disciplines found offices, hired staff and the company has been successfully producing Hypodea for five and a half years, successfully selling and distributing the product all over East Africa.
