Access to Markets in Tanzania
The Tanzanian local market is growing faster with new opportunities. The rapid growth is attributed to the increasing population, infrastructural development, and the country's political will.
Women are playing an important role in the development of the Tanzanian economy where they own a big proportion of the businesses.
Despite being many to invest in income-generating activities, women still don't have access to means of production such as capital, land and family property. They also face challenges of accessing markets for their products.
It is critical to encourage this big proportion of the population to access means of production and markets for the products for the economic growth of the country.
