Market Development 2008

ASNAPP is working with international and local private sector partners to establish long-term marketing opportunities for African plant products.

ASNAPP facilitated the shipment of container loads of bird’s eye chili from Ghana to spice marketing companies in South Africa.

Dynamic Intertrade is seeking to work with ASNAPP to have us assist them in identifying grower communities and procuring spices and herbs in concert with them. This project would involve significant tonnage of green and red sweet pepper per month. Currently, ASNAPP is in discussions with the Department of Agriculture in Limpopo, Goldex, Dynamic Intertrade and the National African Farmers Union to map out the production strategy. Dynamic Intertrade would like to phase production in over a period of three years.

ASNAPP is in discussions with international private sector partners who have expressed interest in buying African indigenous teas. A major focus is on the introduction of ASNAPP’s herbal teas into Europe.
