active

The project will achieve its goal through two measurable objectives: Objective 1: Firm-level support to improve food safety and prevent food loss and waste among agribusiness firms, retail clients, and their suppliers. Use advisory as a lever to improve the performance and efficiency of agribusinesses and retail clients by reducing the risk profile, food loss and waste, operational costs, the environmental footprint, increasing sales revenues and access to finance. Objective 2: Sector-level work to improve an enabling environment to address issues related to food safety and prevent food loss and waste by building the capacity of regulators in line with international best practices on food safety and food loss and waste reduction, by developing training and thought leadership materials across the World Bank Group and with key global stakeholders. The project will also work to close gender gaps in the value chains and address gender issues around skills, knowledge and capacity building across stakeholder groups.
