Project Description
The pilot Project will help Kagome in assessing the feasibility of building its inclusive business models by: a) providing support through an innovative survey methodology to develop a program design to integrate smallholder farmers into the companys supply chain through its out-grower model; b) measuring the levels of consumption/expenditure and poverty level of the potential suppliers; and (c) sharing the findings and lessons learned from the pilot experience.
This is part of IFCs ongoing efforts to partner with global companies and gain knowledge on how they can better engage with Based of the Pyramid (BOP) producers and suppliers through their value chain, and this project will develop and share the lessons learned from this pilot experience to enable other companies to replicate such a model.
