Project Description
IFC is supporting WFP to implement the Patient Procurement Program (PPP) in Rwanda. IFC will perform annual assessments to cooperatives in WFPs supply chain. The assessment will evaluate management and operational practices that will prepare the cooperatives to apply for financing which can further support its members. RABO International Advisory Services (RIAS) will be providing training on management practices and the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA) will train cooperative members on agronomic practices.
By the end of the project, participating cooperatives will be able to provide additional services to their members to increase crop productivity, increase quality of products produced, access to additional markets and increase access to finance for agri inputs.
