[Togo]: A traceability system to be soon established in pineapple, cashew and shea nut value chains

September 11, 2019

Togo intends, according to a document from the UN Industrial Development Organization, to establish a traceability system in the pineapple, cashew, and shea nut value chains.

The project aims at ensuring that Togolese outputs meet international certification standards, and subsequently ramp up agro-food exports, especially in the previously mentioned sectors which have great potential for export.

A call for submission of interest has actually been launched to hire a national consultant and expert in infrastructure quality.

The country let’s recall is working to become an agro-food processing hub, and to this end focuses on making local agro-food businesses more competitive. The announced measure also directly aligns with this goal.
