CARE International in Tanzania had a valuable opportunity to participate in the launch of Tanga Region investment guide prepared by the Economic Social Research Foundation (ESRF) with support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), from November 16th to 17th, 2023. The guidebook will assist in the execution of the development pathway of the region and provide essential regional economic opportunities to stimulate business and enterprise growth.
Representing the Prime Minister Hon. Kassim Majaliwa during the forum, Hon. Prof. Kitila Mkumbo unveiled the Tanga Investment Guidebook, intended to enhance Tanga Region’s competitiveness in comparative strengths as well as reveal emerging economic potentials. Tea and cashew crops stand out as potential value chains for investment, under commercial agriculture opportunity which aligns with CARE’s ongoing projects supporting smallholder farmers in Mkinga and Korogwe Districts. This presents an opportunity for scaling up our activities in agriculture sector.
