The Marketing Infrastructure, Value Addition and Rural Finance Support Programme will be implemented in all 26 regions of the mainland and Zanzibar, with a total of 141 rural districts. The programme is expected to benefit directly close to 500,000 rural households

The development objective is to enhance the incomes and food security of the target group sustainably through increased access to financial services and markets.

The programme builds on the IFAD-supported Rural Financial Services Programme and the Agricultural Marketing Systems Development Programme.

The programme will focus on strengthening the marketing infrastructure and systems, and the rural finance sector.

In line with IFAD's COSOP for the United Republic of Tanzania, the programme will seek to:

  • increase access of poor rural people to a wider range of financial services for productivity-enhancing technologies, services and assets; and
  • increase access to sustainable agricultural input and output markets and opportunities for rural enterprise.
