Women entrepreneurship development in Tanzania: Focus on food processing
Tanzania is heavily dependent on agriculture, but agro-processing for value added is limited. To improve this situation, the Women Entrepreneurship Development programme (WED) was started in 2001, and is now part of the Small Industries Development Organization. WED provides support services to micro- and small-scale entrepreneurs: they facilitate trainees and other entrepreneurs in the sector to start, develop, and sustain their food-processing businesses. In particular, WED has assisted with the packaging needs of microenterprises, to enhance the quality of products.
