Agriculture is diverse and extensive, employing more than 80 percent of the population, and contributing about 28 percent of Gross Domestic Product, or GDP and 30 percent of export earnings. A wide range of agricultural commodities are produced in Tanzania, including fiber (sisal, cotton), beverages (coffee, tea), sugar, grains (a diverse range of cereals and legumes), horticulture (temperate and tropical fruits, vegetables and flowers) and edible oils. This document proposes a new model for promoting the growth of competitive value-added sunflower oil processing in Tanzania, and also seeks to identify potential growth enterprises in other value chains. The Agribusiness Innovation Center (AIC) will provide a set of financial and non-financial services to high-growth potential entrepreneurs, aiming to accelerate the growth of their enterprises and demonstrating product, process, and business model innovation across focal sectors. The AIC will complement existing efforts focused on farm-level improvements and foreign investment facilitation.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO MARKETSACCESS TO TECHNOLOGYACCOUNTINGAGRIBUSINESSAGRICULTURAL COMMODITIESAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTAGRICULTURAL GROWTHAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIONAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTSAGRICULTUREAGRONOMYAICANIMAL DISEASESANIMALSAPPLESBAKERY PRODUCTSBEEFBEVERAGESBONE MEALBRANDBRAND NAMEBRANDSBREADBUSINESS ACTIVITIESBUSINESS CENTERBUSINESS DEVELOPMENTBUSINESS ENVIRONMENTBUSINESS MODELBUSINESS MODELSBUSINESS OPPORTUNITIESBUSINESS PLANBUSINESS PLANNINGBUSINESSESBUYERBUYERSCACABBAGESCAPABILITIESCAPABILITYCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPACITY-BUILDINGCAPITAL EXPENDITURECASH CROPSCASHEW NUTCASHEW NUTSCASHEWSCASSAVACASSAVA FLOURCASSAVA PRODUCTIONCASSAVA STARCHCEREALSCERTIFICATION STANDARDSCHAMBER OF COMMERCECOFFEECOLD CHAINCOMMERCECOMMERCIAL BANKCOMMERCIAL FARMERSCOMMERCIAL FARMINGCOMMERCIALIZATIONCOMMODITYCOMMUNITY BANKSCOMPETITIVE ADVANTAGECOMPETITIVENESSCONSUMER GOODCOOKINGCOPYRIGHTCOTTONCROPCROP HUSBANDRYCROPSCULTIVATIONDAIRYDIRECT SALESDOMESTIC MARKETDRIED FRUITECONOMIC COOPERATIONEDIBLE OILSEMPLOYMENTEMPLOYMENT CREATIONENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENTENTREPRENEURSHIPEQUIPMENTESSENTIAL OILSEXPENDITUREEXPORT CROPSEXPORT DEVELOPMENTEXPORT EARNINGSEXPORT MARKETSEXTRACTSFAOFARMFARMERFARMER ASSOCIATIONSFARMERSFARMSFERTILIZERFIBER CROPSFINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFINANCIAL PRODUCTSFINANCIAL SERVICESFINANCIAL SYSTEMFINISHED PRODUCTFISH PROCESSINGFLOURFLOWERSFOOD POLICYFOOD POLICY RESEARCHFOOD PROCESSINGFOOD PROCESSING COMPANIESFOOD PROCESSORSFOOD PRODUCTSFOOD REQUIREMENTSFOOD SAFETYFOOD STAPLESFOODSFOREIGN INVESTMENTFOREST PRODUCTSFRESH FRUITFRUITFRUITSFUND MANAGEMENTGRAINSGROSS PROFITGROUNDNUTGROUNDNUTSGROWTH IN AGRICULTUREGROWTH POTENTIALHARVESTINGHONEYHORTICULTURAL PRODUCTSHORTICULTUREHOUSEHOLD FOOD SECURITYHYGIENEIFPRIIMPLEMENTATION PLANIMPLEMENTATION STAGEINCOME GENERATIONINDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE ACCESSINNOVATIONINNOVATION PROGRAMSINPUT PROVIDERSINSTITUTIONINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTEINTERNATIONAL MARKETINTERNATIONAL MARKETSJUICESLABOR FORCELAND USELEATHERLEGUMESLEMONSLIMITED ACCESSLOCAL GOVERNMENTMAIZEMANAGEMENT SYSTEMMANGOMANGOESMANUFACTURINGMARKET ACCESSMARKET CONDITIONSMARKET DEMANDMARKET INFORMATIONMARKET OPPORTUNITIESMARKET OPPORTUNITYMARKET RESEARCHMARKET RISKSMARKET SHAREMARKETINGMATERIALMEATMEDIUM ENTERPRISEMEDIUM ENTERPRISESMIDDLEMENMILLSNET PROFITNETWORKSNEW MARKETSOILSEED CROPSOILSEEDSONIONSOPERATING COSTSORANGESPACKAGINGPALM OILPAPAYAPDFPERISHABLE PRODUCTSPERSONAL COMMUNICATIONPHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRYPHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTUREPINEAPPLESPLANT EXTRACTSPLANTATIONSPRICE INCENTIVESPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENTPRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENTPRIVATE SECTORSPROCESSED FOODSPROCUREMENTPRODUCEPRODUCT QUALITYPRODUCT ·MARKETPRODUCTION OF RICEPRODUCTIVITYPROFITABILITYQUALITY MANAGEMENTR&DREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTRELEVANT MARKETRESULTRESULTSRETAILRICERURAL ENTREPRENEURSSALESALESSALES SUPPORTSATELLITESAVINGSSEEDSEED VARIETIESSERVICE PROVIDERSERVICE PROVIDERSSESAMESISALSPICESSUBSTITUTESUBSTITUTIONSUGARSUGARCANESUNFLOWERSUNFLOWER OILSUPERMARKETSSUPPLIERTANGERINESTARGET MARKETTARGETSTEATECHNICAL SKILLSTECHNICAL SUPPORTTECHNICAL TRAININGTECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTTOBACCOTOMATOESTRANSACTION COSTSTRANSPORTTROPICAL FRUITSTRUST FUNDSTURNOVERVALUE CHAINVALUE CHAINSVEGETABLESVITAMINSWAREHOUSEWHEATWHEAT FLOURWORKING CAPITALYIELDS10.1596/17660
