As you may have seen, we started the #covidcreativity series on our LinkedIn page. The Covid pandemic brings challenges, but also a burst of creativity!

Entrepreneur sfind other ways to sell their products, or come up with totally new services. We share their stories because we are very proud of the strong women entrepreneurs in our network, and because they inspire you to never give up.

-      Elizabeth Sianga could no longer sell het specialty vegetables to lodges and restaurants. She decided to start an online training for young farmers, called Extraordinary Agripreneur. 800 persons already paid a fee to participate.

-      Chanda Mayaka normally sells her organic fertiliser to agro-dealers.  Many of these closed their businesses. Now she cooperates with NGOs and reaches twice as many small farmers as before!

-      Roselyn Musarurwa provides cleaning services and extended this with the sales of hand sanitizers in all forms and sizes. Her latest addition is a back2school Covid pack for kids!

Follow us on LinkedIn for more great and inspiring stories and share yours!
