What we lack is found in you and what you lack is found in us, together we can overcome and break all barriers to global trade

We desire to enable trade of transparency, fairness, inclusiveness and equality. Membership to our Travvc family is in discriminatory and designed for everyone from a large corporation to a small producer with no offices or bank account. We believe in pooling resources and supplementing one another. What we lack is found in you and what you lack is found in us, together we can overcome and break all barriers to global trade. Each one of us can bring relevance to the value chain irrespective of our background, status and size. If you can produce, and the next member transports while the other member processes and packages, we can all build and uplift one another, because value and growth lie in each one of us. We can all add value to each other’s effort.

Resources from value chain players are pooled for the benefit of Travvc Trade members and the value chain itself.

Travvc Trade helps to forge relationships amongst producers, manufacturers, distributors, logistics firms and many other peripheral key players of the Value Chain such as financial institutions, insurance companies, agro-input firms, packaging companies, blending and storage companies. Resources from these Value Chain Players are pooled for the benefit of Travvc Trade members and the value chain itself. For example, through market guarantee from manufacturers, a financing institution can lend money to a small holder farmer to support expansion activities or a seed company can extend credit facilities to the farmer, an animal feed distributor can extend credit facilities to a village chicken farmer to boost production etc.
