In this partnership, the business champion Tays Food Limited's ambition is to contribute to the improvement of productivity and the reduction of the post-harvest losses in the onion value chain in Sokoto state, leading to more income for farmers, higher product quality and increased availability for local consumers through increased yield and improved storage facilities. Improved market systems can greatly improve the business dynamics in the Nigerian onion sector. For instance, farmers and traders need access to improved storage facilities, to better tap into the market dynamics and seasonal price fluctuations. Unfortunately, still considerable losses of onions of up to 50% of total production, arise mostly from poor agricultural practices, storage practices and lack of storage facilities.
