This project contributes to rebuilding the private sector in Haiti through export activity. The main goal is to develop and promote artisans' craftwork in order to increase Haitian exports in the home décor and gift sectors. In addition, the project aims to raise general export capacity through exporter training for entrepreneurs and managers of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This project has three components. The first two components focus on developing "go to market" programs for four communities of artisans (informal sector micro-entrepreneurs) and a group of export-ready SMEs. These two components also support the capacity of these producers to develop and sustain access to international markets. The third component helps business support institutions establish an exporter training program. This training component is intended for all SME exporting sectors. This project is part of the Canadian Market Access and Trade Capacity Building project. It is implemented by TFO Canada, in cooperation with BRANDAID Project and its Haitian partners.
