Construction was completed in June 2024, and the market proudly hosts 2,053 vendors.
Similar facility is underway in @RwamaganaDistr.

I spent two days in @NgomaDistrict to assess and understand how @Agriterra has supported the growth of maize cooperatives since 2021.
My focus was on their performance during Agriculture Season C, particularly with crops such as #cabbage and #carrots.
The focus was on two cooperatives, KOAIR with over 123 members, and Imbaraga, which has 94 members managing more than 415 hectares combined.

Last week, I travelled to seven districts in @RwandaSouth to meet and learn from seven women entrepreneurs who received low-interest loans to grow their businesses.
They were financed by two saving and credit cooperatives: COOPEC Impamba and CPF Ineza in collaboration with @Agriterra.
