Burkina Faso: A weekly market for bio-based products
Every Saturday from 09:00 to 13:00, there is a market of locally bio-based products, initiated by Mani Tese and ACRA, two Italian NGOs, to promote local products.
For Mani Tese, supporting bio-based products is not just at the production level, but also at the level of marketing which allows the producer to get a profit from the activity. As for the customers, buying the products directly from the producer also means that they can visit their farms and see how the vegetables are grown.
“It's the quality I find here, the size and appearance of vegetables, it's very impressive. I am convinced by the products,” says Frank KUKLINSKI, a customer at the market.
