Resumen
Descripción
Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that work in food production, processing and retail play a key role in agrifood systems, especially in sub Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, where opportunities for commercialization are expanding. Indeed, agrifood SMEs can take advantage of these opportunities to compete and thrive in the market, while increasing local access to nutritionally dense foods and promoting healthy diets. This project was formulated to leverage the power of SMEs in three countries that have great potential for creating an enabling environment for developing nutrition sensitive food systems: Ghana, Kenya and Viet Nam. Through its multistakeholder approach, the project created synergies among the private sector, academia and civil society, which is critical to boosting in country capacities to support healthy diets.
