USAID Tuhifadhi Chakula Project (USAID – TCP) is a five-year project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by TAHA. The overarching objective of the Project is to reduce food loss and waste and resultant climate effects for improved food security and livelihoods.
The project has been co-created to improve food handling, storage, and value addition, facilitate market access, inform and promote policy and regulatory frameworks that reduce food loss and waste, and strengthen local organizations’ capacity to lead in post-harvest management. Overall, the project will contribute to reducing post-harvest losses from 30-40% for horticulture to 15% and from 13% to 7% for cereals by the end of the project.
TAHA through USAID TCP has set aside a budget to solicit and engage eligible and qualified consultant to conduct a review of the current status of the market support facilities in USAID Tuhifadhi Chakula Project regions. The consultancy aims to assess the existing marker support facilities in the project regions which are Dodoma, Dar es Salaam, Arusha, Kilimanjaro, Morogoro, Mbeya, Njombe, Tanga, Pwani and Zanzibar; analyzing their current status to inform the needed areas for improvement, determining the capacity in terms of volume and the number of stakeholders they are serving.
