This report complements the publication ‘Opportunities for Financing - Farming & Processing in the Cassava, Maize and Plantain Value Chains in Côte d’Ivoire’. It presents marketing strategies for the financing of the staple food sector in Côte d’Ivoire, particularly the maize, cassava, and plantain value chains. These are based on an analysis of farming and processing models in the sector, including their specific challenges and attributes, as well as related funding opportunities and suitable financing products.
