Feed the Future Tanzania Tuhifadhi Chakula Project (Let’s Save Food) Project is a five-year project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by TAHA. The overarching objective of the Project is to reduce food loss and waste and resultant climate effects for improved food security and livelihoods.
The project has been co-created to improve food handling, storage, and value addition, facilitate market access, inform and promote policy and regulatory frameworks that reduce food loss and waste, and strengthen local organizations’ capacity to lead in post-harvest management. Overall, the project will contribute to reducing post-harvest losses from 30-40% for horticulture to 15% and from 13% to 7% for cereals by the end of the project. Packaging is the very crucial component in reducing food losses at various stages of food supply chain. In most cases packaging is attributed by poor handling, distribution, storage, and consumption behaviors. It is with no doubts that proper packaging can hugely help in utilizing resources efficiently and minimize environmental impacts, thereby contributing to a more sustainable food supply system. Under this vital component TAHA through Feed the Future Tanzania Tuhifadhi Chakula Project (Let’s Save Food) Project has set aside a budget to solicit and engage eligible and qualified consultants for conducting assessment of the Packaging materials for Horticulture Crops and the Value-added Products in Tanzania.
