Representatives of Windwood Millers Limited (WML), at the, just concluded quarterly meeting for the end of the 2nd quarter of implementing the AfrII- WML- PSFU YAW Project titled ‘Increasing Income and Creating Job Opportunities for Youth in the Cassava Value Chain’. The project aims to create 5,214 decent and sustainable jobs for youths through the production and sale of 144,000 MTs of fresh cassava roots, and 6,000 MTs of soybeans, to WindWood Millers Ltd for processing into high-quality flour and other products for the markets. This project will enable WML to expand and stabilize its raw material supply, strengthen the supply chain and expand into bigger markets. This capability will thus enable the firm to offer decent job opportunities to young males and female youths engaged in the value chains.

Mr. Joseph Ochen and Ms. Angella Ajam (front row 2nd & 3rd) partook in the meeting held at the Sheraton Kampala Hotel to track the progress of project implementation.
