Entrepreneurship
We work closely with small- and medium-sized businesses across our value chain everyday—from tens of thousands of smallholder farmers to millions of retailers. Through meaningful engagement with these entrepreneurs and other key partners, we catalyze resources and opportunities to develop localized solutions and create shared prosperity. These entrepreneurs are often the backbone of their communities, and their success is tied to supporting their families and growing the local economy.
Our Strategy
Entrepreneurship is about supporting and uplifting the small- and medium-sized businesses across our value chain. We understand the challenges that these small businesses face in accessing financial services, business skills development and the inputs needed to maintain and upgrade their operations. That is why we meet entrepreneurs where they are, whether that is in the field, over a counter or at a recycling facility.
We support entrepreneurship through:
Digital Inclusion
Enabling access to the tools and technologies that provide greater opportunities to information, markets, customers and other data points needed to drive business.
Financial Inclusion
Helping create pathways to finance through increased financially literacy and greater opportunities to adopt more resilient financial practices.
Social Inclusion
Empowering entrepreneurs to participate meaningfully in our programming by tailoring the way we deliver content to them. This enables us to expand access to opportunities within a localized context.
