Country: Nigeria

Beginning in 2015, GCCF worked with the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) to develop a project in Nigeria that kicked off in 2016. The Postharvest Loss Alliance for Nutrition (PLAN) project established a business-to-business linkage with GCCA members and local Nigerian companies who are seeking to improve their businesses. PLAN offered an opportunity for GCCA members who had interest, expertise, and availability to share their knowledge to grow the cold chain globally. Through the PLAN project, Nigerian companies were identified and vetted for participation. Each of these companies received a diagnostic needs assessment. Where the needs involve cold chain storage, operations, refrigeration engineering, or business operations, GCCA reached out to members who had expressed an interest in participating to link them with the Nigerian business.
