AECF funding in Zimbabwe

With assistance of Advance Consulting the Zimbabwean company IETC Zimbabwe Ltd was successful in securing project funding from the African Enterprise Challenge Fund (AECF) for a new soy processing plant and outgrower scheme in Zimbabwe.

During the project an outgrower scheme with 7,000 small-scale soybean farmers will be established as well as a HACCP certified pilot-scale processing plant in Harare with an annual production capacity of 3,600 MT of Texturized Soy Pieces (TSP) for the local retail and institutional market.
