A SNAP-SHOT OF THE VALUE CHAIN MODEL

The Value Chain is a business oriented approach which aims at capturing the best value at all the stages of production, processing and trading from farmers through traders, processors and retailers up to the final consumer
The better all partners in a Value Chain cooperate, the higher will be the value generated for the individual actor at every stage of the Value Chain
