through small-group coaching
and peer business support
networks. Small group coaching,

organized by gender and market

sector, will deliver practical
information on topics relevant to

beneficiaries’ daily operations by
coaches from NEF and we will

provide tailored coaching based
on specific needs and interests of

beneficiaries in topics such as
marketing, hygiene standards,

e-marketing, pricing, time

management, business
registration and legalization,

branding, packaging, and access
to finance.

Support agri-business success through

peer business support networks to

facilitate group purchasing, aggregated
transportation or sales, and the

development of social networks, NEF
will support agricultural producers and

processors to develop peer

agribusiness networks, organized by
gender and market sector. NEF expects

that 60% of agri-business trainees will
participate. Peer Networks meet

regularly, offering a safe platform for

learning from peers, discussing
challenges and solutions, making

horizontal and vertical connections
within value chains, fostering

cooperation, and reducing social

isolation and tension and creating
bridges between communities.
