Brief
Project Overview:
Project Overview:
The
USAID Rwanda Nguriza Nshore Activity seeks to encourage the creation and growth
of productive off-farm small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that add value to
agricultural commodities, such as firms that provide storage, processing,
transportation, or leasing of farm implements. This activity will support these
SMEs by strengthening their capacity to access finance, catalyzing a vibrant
business development service sector, and removing barriers to investment and
finance for banks, microfinance institutions, and private investors interested
in working with these SMEs.
