SUGECO Tanzania

SUGECO is conducting a Training of Trainers (ToT) for CRDB Bank staff under the Tanzania Agriculture Climate Adaptation Technology Deployment Programme (TACATDP).

The training is designed to equip CRDB Bank staff with a comprehensive understanding of Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) technologies and their role in building resilient and sustainable agricultural systems. By strengthening their technical knowledge, participants will be better positioned to assess, appraise, and finance agricultural projects that integrate CSA practices under the TACATDP programme.

As Master Trainers, the participants will cascade this knowledge to other CRDB Bank staff across the country, creating a strong internal capacity to identify, evaluate, and support bankable Climate-Smart Agriculture investments. This approach will enhance the Bank's ability to expand access to Agricultural Resilience and Adaptation (ARA) finance, enabling more farmers and agribusinesses to invest in climate-resilient technologies.

Through this initiative, SUGECO and CRDB Bank are strengthening the capacity of the financial sector to accelerate the adoption of Climate-Smart Agriculture, improve agricultural productivity, enhance climate resilience, and contribute to sustainable economic development in Tanzania.

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting delegates from AGRA Tanzania at SUGECO for a courtesy call and an insightful field visit 🌱

The delegation had the opportunity to interact with beneficiaries of our programs, including participants of the YEFFA project, witnessing firsthand the impact of our initiatives in empowering youth and advancing agribusiness.

We appreciate the continued collaboration and shared commitment to transforming agriculture and creating opportunities for young people.

SUGECO is pleased to welcome field students from Borigaram, St. Mary Goreth, and the Institute of Rural Development Planning specializing in Agriculture and Finance. The students will gain practical field experience while contributing to our ongoing activities. We wish them a productive and inspiring learning experience.🌱

At SUGECO, we support youth through practical, hands-on training from nursery establishment to market-ready production.

A well managed nursery is the first step toward high yields, quality produce, and profitable farming. Our young entrepreneurs are learning, practicing, and growing every day.

At our project site in Lubungo, Mvomero, young entrepreneurs are actively engaged in the Kizimba Business Model — producing high-quality vegetables and turning agriculture into a profitable business.

We are proud to see youth leading the change in food production and economic empowerment.

Healthy families start with nutritious crops 🌱🧡

Our Orange Fleshed Sweet Potato (OFSP) fields are growing well, and we continue to advocate for its production due to its high nutritional value and strong market potential.

Through SUGECO, youth and farmers are supported not only in production but also in value addition — turning OFSP into profitable agribusiness ventures.

🌱 Quality OFSP seedlings are available now.
Secure yours and be part of the change.

Preparing today for a successful tomorrow 🌱

Our SUGECO youth members are on the ground installing irrigation systems and organizing farm inputs as we get ready for this farming season.

Agribusiness is not just an idea — it’s hands-on work, planning, and teamwork.

Together, we grow businesses. Together, we grow an impact.

Leo SUGECO tumeshiriki katika uzinduzi wa program ya Go Green na iMbeju mkoani Dodoma, inayoratibiwa na CRDB Foundation. Go Green na iMbeju ni jukwaa linalolenga kuwawezesha vijana wenye ubunifu kujikita katika uchumi wa kijani na ujasiriamali endelevu. 🌱

“Go Green na iMbeju ni program ambayo tunawaalika vijana wenye ubunifu wa aina mbalimbali au biashara au ujasirimali katika eneo la kijani. Eneo la kijani ni watu ambao wanafanya ubunifu kwenye uvuvi, kilimo na k**a tunatumia eneo kubwa tutumie eneo dogo badala ya kuharibu eneo kubwa”
— Tully Esther Mwambapa, Mkurugenzi Mtendaji CRDB Bank Foundation na Mkurugenzi wa Mawasiliano CRDB Bank.

Kupitia program hii, vijana wanahamasishwa kutumia rasilimali kwa ufanisi, kulinda mazingira na kuunda fursa za kiuchumi zenye tija kwa kizazi cha sasa na kijacho.
