Market Connect in Zambia provides support service for buyers

Market Connect is an advisory, brokerage and financial support service provided by the Zambia Agribusiness and Trade Project (ZATP) that aims to promote the sustainable integration of agribusiness SMEs into value chains with established end-markets and large buyers, by supporting their ability to invest in productivity-enhancing know-how and meet buyer requirements.

Despite its outsized role in employment, the agriculture sector remains unproductive. The World Bank conducted research on whether linkages between producers and buyers, technical assistance, and matching grant can improve profits and productivity of farmers and agribusiness SMEs.

In the first portion of the research, the research team targeted productive alliances, which is composed of multiple farmers and a buyer. The productive alliance as a unit is given assistance to improve their trading relationship.

In the second portion, agribusiness SMEs relates to buyers through Market Connect, which is a royalty bearing brokerage and technical assistance service for growth-oriented agri-business MSMEs.
