Description
<p>Many lead firms in food manufacturing and&nbsp;retailing are looking to open their supply chains to&nbsp;smallholder farmers. Lead firms are rarely, if ever,&nbsp;in a direct trading relationship with smallholders;&nbsp;the relationship is mediated by one or more levels&nbsp;of trader and supplier. The question then arises&nbsp;of how lead firms can support suppliers to trade&nbsp;with smallholders, and in doing so reconcile&nbsp;inclusion of smallholders with commercial drivers.&nbsp;This report has set out to answer that question,&nbsp;based on interviews with lead firms, suppliers&nbsp;and those working to support suppliers to trade&nbsp;with smallholders.</p>
