FPEAK has entered into a partnership with DanChurchAid (DCA) to implement a project named From Loss to Value Creation (L2V). The project’s objective is to reduce food loss and waste by implementing scalable cold storage solutions accessible to horticulture small holder farmers.
By offering flexible and sustainable financing and payment/loan options, the project aims to make cold storage accessible to small holder farmers, cooper- atives, and traders, benefiting over 2,000 farmers, 4 trader associations, and 10 commodity aggregators in Nakuru and Nyandarua Counties.
The project will be implemented jointly with two commercial partners; Danfoss and InspiraFarms. The project will develop energy efficient, low global warming potential refrigeration solutions to target Kenya’s thriving horticulture sector.
FPEAK members sourcing fresh produce from the two Counties will benefit by leveraging on the activities implemented by the project. The project runs from August 2023 to July 2028.
