Published in : 2007

Available in : English

The Food Processing Pilot Centres (FPPCs) play a central role in the food industry value chain as they reinforce and manage the fundamental linkage between agriculture and the industry/market through technological upgrading, business networking and market access improvement, thus creating a more favorable environment for business development.

The rural FPPCs have been at the core of the Integrated Programme (IP) in several African countries.
