This will be achieved by supporting improvements of the business and investment climate necessary for the development of priority value chains. The project will strengthen the private sector in the EAC region by addressing competitiveness and production challenges that hinder access to the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) which is the target market for the EAC Partner States. The project’s general objective is cluster development for edible oils, leather and textiles value chains through technical assistance and capacity support to raise regional competitiveness while increasing their respective contribution to the sustainable and inclusive industrialization of the EAC region. Beneficiaries As the recipient of the grant, the EABC will benefit directly. The private sector too will benefit directly through targeted activities and indirectly through implementation of activities by the EABC Secretariat. Other indirect beneficiaries will be the EAC Partner States and the peoples of East Africa who will benefit through spillovers of improved value chain activities, growth in the economy and job creation by the private sector.
