Recently FairMatch Support was involved in Sierra Leone with setting up “Jula Consultancy Ltd ‘. This organization focuses on establishing sustainable local cocoa and coffee supply chains. Jula gives advice to traders, and training and organizing of farmers.

Jula thus contributes to the increase of traceability in agri-chains. The company is working on increasing sales and quality of production and processing of agricultural products. It generates employment in Sierra Leone in two ways. First, the agricultural sector becomes more interesting as a source of income for young people, through increased and affordable products. In addition: Previously consultants from other countries where needed, Jula now offers local specialists. On the short term this will lead to cost-reductions and building capacity in organizational development, for example certification processes, in Sierra Leone.

FairMatch Support assists Jula with training and coaching in various fields, including day-to-day management and content of the consultancy services.
