  The Hybrid Market Access Cooperative(HYMAC) Model puts the smallholder Woman farmer at the center of the business through well selected and trained farmer enterprises as the smallest unit for organizational & mobilization purposes. The Warehouse Storage infrastructure is for bulking, quality control, collective marketing and unit price control with the market. The farmer enterprises collectively form the cooperative governance structure to which Rockford Harris Group that runs the Warehouse System on a profit model accounts to. The Warehouse Receipt System runs on a partnership model between Commercial Banks, Uganda Commodities Exchange, the regulator and the Women’s Mission for Children that runs Warehouse (Bulking Center) on behalf of the cooperative on a profit model to sustain the business and replicate a working model to other areas as well as integrate other value & commodity chains. This model through increased returns will attract more market players in the value chain and help expand and replicate the model to other districts in the Country. Show less
