Different businesses set up stalls to market their businesses and exhibit their products, ranging from fresh produce to skin and hair care products.

Pretoria - To help bridge the gap between rural women in farming and access to markets, the Morongwa Foundation and other stakeholders held their first Basadi Farmers and Business Market fund-raiser in Mabopane.

The event is a business marketing and networking initiative of Morongwa Foundation in partnership with the Hebron Mango Tree Owners Co-operative and the Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities. Different businesses set up stalls on the day to market their businesses and exhibit their products, ranging from fresh produce to skin and hair care products.

Founder and chief executive of the Morongwa Foundation, Nkagare Makhudu, said the aim was to address gender-specific obstacles for women in farming to offer a distribution channel for smallholder farmers as well as lobbying funding, training and mentorship opportunities. “Proceeds from the event will go towards training of rural women and youth in climate change adaptation so as to build their resilience and reduce their vulnerability as smallholder farmers,” Makhudu said.
