Since 2018, RisiAlbania has been dedicated to facilitating access to high-value markets by promoting product certification, supporting the ecosystem and innovative models like GlobalG.A.P group certification. By providing embedded services, including agronomic advice and quality management systems, exporters of fruits and vegetables were able to offer valuable support to their farmers. This proactive approach led to a significant shift in behavior among exporters, with many obtaining the GlobalG.A.P   and especially group certification and successfully entering high-value markets

Agripreneurship model, which is a capacity-building program designed to align with the overarching goal of enhancing the performance of exporters and farmers in accessing high-value markets. This program places strong emphasis on equipping young and leading farmers with the knowledge and skills required for resilient farming. It encourages entrepreneurial spirit through three pillars:

  1. Developing Farmers of the Future
  2. Transforming Farms for the Future
  3. Creating Conducive Environments

In collaboration with exporters, input suppliers, technology providers, and financial institutions, this initiative offers training modules tailored to specific areas of expertise. Young individuals are selected and undergo Agripreneur learning and coaching formation, empowering the next generation of farmers to meet the challenges of the future while contributing to the prosperity of Albania’s agricultural sector.
