This partnership aims to develop local production capacity and supply of fresh milk by investing in infrastructure and capacity building needs to create a stable market, empower and integrate local Fulani milk producers (mostly women) into this supply chain. Nigeria’s demand for milk products is estimated at 1.3 million tons per annum of which just 40% is locally produced. This gap has always been bridged by importing powdered milk. As a result, the government is willing to partner to improve the productivity of the agricultural sector and reduce milk importation. 2SCALE is partnering with FC WAMCO to build capacity for local production of milk with smallholder farmers and positively influence investments in infrastructure for dairy supply chains
7,290 smallholder farmers involved.
5000 micro-small and medium enterprises involved.
60 producer organizations involved (dairy cooperatives).
€ 1,275,766 private sector co-investment.
50,000 BoP consumers with better access to nutritious food
