Public Call for Tender no 91183915 procurement of material and equipment for post-harvesting center PN# 21.1823.0-001.00 ACE

Due to the value loss of the Lebanese Lira, imports have become so expensive that importing necessary production inputs has become almost impossible putting food security at risk. The project Strengthening Agriculture, local Communities and small and medium Enterprises (ACE) aims to strengthen economic stabilization and improve social cohesion through targeted measures to promote cooperation and exchange in three areas of action: 1. Agriculture: Support of farmers to form agricultural associations and to produce in accordance with market needs, including training and sharing of good agricultural practices. 2. Support of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME): Targeted promotion of income prospects with financial and capacity-building measures to promote entrepreneurial action and closing important gaps in the value chains 3. Local communities & social cohesion: Joint planning & implementation of low-threshold community initiatives both within civil society and together with local governments to strengthen positive intergroup experiences as well as increasing confidence in local capacity to act The project is categorized as part of the transitional development assistance. The project will promote individual skills so that the parties responsible in agricultural businesses, food processing enterprises and other SMEs downstream of agriculture, as well as local authorities and civil society, will be able to understand changes and adapt their actions. This request is launched to support the area of action 1 (AoA1) which aims to support farmers to form agricultural associations and to produce in accordance with market needs. AoA1 is implementing a project that is supporting 40 smallholder farmers and beekeepers by introducing sustainable practices, particularly agroforestry and advanced beekeeping techniques. A post-harvesting center, which will serve as a vital hub for services for farmers and beekeepers, will be equipped to ensure the complementarity of the implemented measures. The center will provide several services like grinding, mixing their herb produces, offering premium packaging solutions, and providing value-added services that enhance the shelf life, quality, and marketability of their fresh products.
