About The Project
The purpose of the project is to increase the participation of women-owned businesses in trade by improving their competitiveness and strengthening their market linkages. The project seeks to enable Moroccan women to benefit from economic participation focusing on processed foods value chains. Within the framework of the International Trade Centre’s SheTrades Initiative, the project will work with key public and private stakeholders to address issues that are holding back Moroccan women from fulfilling their economic potential.
As a result, we expect 25 women-owned SMEs in the processed foods sectors will benefit from higher incomes translating to increased resources to strengthen and grow their businesses and a better livelihood for the community in general
Outcome
  • Enhanced capacities of Moroccan Trade and Investment Support Institutions (TISI) to enable women-owned SMEs to sell to local and international markets
  • Enhanced capacities of 25 women owned SMEs to sell to local and international markets
  • Business linkages developed between targeted women-owned SMEs and potential buyers in Europe and North America
