Making Markets Work for Women Goat Farmers (M4W) – Banke Goat Commercialization Project

Duration: Aug 2015 – Dec 2017

Goal

The Banke Goat Commercialization Project aims to establish a sustainable goat market system with fair share of profit along the value chain actors through connecting small-scale farmers with end market. The project has united 15 primary cooperatives into District Union (DU). The DU functions in Farmer- Owned Agribusiness framework that leads business/marketing function on behalf of the primary coops. This farmer owned framework makes DU unique, giving members control over production and marketing while professional staff oversee management.
