This is an important and exciting time for Africa’s cotton sector where all stakeholders have a critical role and a tremendous opportunity to positively impact the African cotton value chain – and the continent at large.
ACF members enjoy access to unique funding and partnership opportunities such as cost-sharing, co-learning, and the potential to activate integrated new value chain opportunities.
Access to grant funding and blended finance
An industry platform with a common voice, strategy, and scale is more likely to secure financial support than an individual company acting alone with limited scale
Cost-sharing to combat shared and systemic challenges
Examples include seed systems, equipment and input distribution systems, GMO policy, smallholder financial services, and strengthening government extension services
Potential to activate integrated value chain opportunities across the cotton value chain
Coordinating transparent, traceable value chain development – from farmer to retailer
Visibility and influence
Contribute to a stronger collective voice and guide the strategies and priorities of Development Agencies and National and Regional Government Agencies
ACF invites you to join our exciting initiative. Our membership dues are structured on function and size, to ensure inclusivity from all stakeholders associated with the African Cotton Value Chain. For further information, please contact us
