Background

EUCORD is an international NGO with headquarters based in Brussels (formally registered as a cooperative in the Netherlands) with offices in Africa and Kigali in particular. EUCORD’s vision is to nurture more prosperous and entrepreneurial rural communities in developing countries. Its mission is to help people living in poverty in developing countries improve their wellbeing, by increasing farmers’ capacity to sustainably grow quality crops matched to the commercial needs of the agribusiness sector and in doing so, increase food security, develop the private sector and improve the livelihoods of rural communities. To fulfil its mission, EUCORD focuses on supporting farmers increase their crop yields and to develop efficient value chains, while working with the private sector to guarantee a demand for produce and a supply of key inputs.

EUCORD helps farmers to reach their full potential while allowing businesses to rely on locally sourced crops. EUCORD provides end-to-end value chain development services, including: access to finance, capacity building, climate smart agriculture, enterprise, development, market assessment, nutrition and value chain development. 

In Rwanda EUCORD has successfully implemented several projects since 2014. In 2023, EUCORD has received a grant from the European Union under Kungahara Program to implement a project named PROFARM: Promoting an integrated farming system around sunflower, maize and vegetables to stimulate resilient agriculture and nutrition security for smallholder farmers in Rwanda.  

The overall project objective is to ensure sufficient, sustainable food production and economic security in Rwanda.  Specifically, the action will contribute to improving local production and availability of good quality and affordable food, as well as improved nutrition (Specific Objective 1), and will help to increase income by linking farmers to guaranteed markets and improve the livelihoods and nutritional status of local communities (Specific Objective 2).

Therefore, EUCORD is seeking suppliers to provide chickens (layers) to project beneficiaries in order to improve nutrition within the project intervention areas.
