This guide was developed for farmer organizations and companies wishing to export organic and fair-trade certified products, as well as for organizations providing them with support services. The guide is divided into seven separate modules which address the process of getting ready to export from different angles. Although the guide may of course be read in its entirety, these various modules are rather meant to be used fragmentarily, depending upon the user’s needs of the moment.
The guide is conceived as a practical, easy-to-use document. It is divided into seven separate modules which address the process of getting ready to export from different angles, including: before you start; producer group or company management; business planning; financial management; training; certification; and market research and marketing. Although they may of course be read consecutively, these various chapters are rather meant to be usedfragmentarily, depending upon the user’s needs of the moment.
