Our Regional Director, Isaac Gyamfi, will be speaking this morning on our role in making the coconut industry more inclusive and sustainable at the @3rdcocoFestgh happening now.
Join us at the @3rdcocoFestgh in Takoradi, happening from September 26 to 28, 2023, as we explore #innovative strategies to transform the #coconut sector.
"We want to be a part of the success story in developing #coconut further to become an additional crop for diversification and #income generation, amongst others," says Isaac Gyamfi. He was speaking at the @3rdcocoFestgh earlier today.
To create access to finance for smallholder #farmers, we derisk & link them to financial institutions. We do this through consistent training in good practices & financial literacy, to improve their #livelihood. This same strategy will be used for the #coconut sector — @BossOwus.
