Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise Development in Rural Areas (PYMERURAL)
Inclusive value chain development became a public policy priority in both Nicaragua and Honduras. PYMERURAL has been supporting institutions at national and local level to achieve greater competitiveness of micro, small and medium enterprises through local economic and value chain development (increased access to market opportunities, to services, improved regulatory and governance conditions). This short exit phase aims to further consolidate and scale up achievements.

| Contexte |
In Central American positive economic growth rates between 3% and 5% have been observed, but poverty reduction has been slow. Therefore, SDC has been supporting sustainable micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) development and pro poor growth. Recent crises’ have affected economic growth additionally. However, opportunities for pro-poor growth interventions remain strong, especially in agriculture, livestock production and the food industry areas. |
| Objectifs |
Contribute to employment and income (E&I) generation for poor men and women in rural areas in Honduras and Nicaragua by ensuring sustainability of MSMEs through value chain development (VCD): |
