About Us
Zanzinto, means "Virtuous Woman" in Ewe, the national language of Togo, located in West Africa. It is a Socio-Economic Organization, whose purpose is to promote women farmers entrepreneurship and sustainable agriculture through training and access to fair markets.
In Togo, Women represent 70% of the agricultural workforce and produce 80 % of the harvest. Despite their bravery, they represent the highest poverty margin.To overcome these shortcomings, and improve the living conditions of rural women, many associations and groups are trying to provide financial support and equipment necessary to the expansion of arable land: and the increase in production.
However, women face a more crucial issue; the flow of excess production,due to their lack of:
- Access to local, regional and international markets.
- Knowledge of modern marketing tools, that can help improve their income.
