"Suggest you get in touch with the Global Shea Alliance via its website. Or you might want to look at the West Africa Trade Hub, which has a wider focus than just shea. Good luck!"

Hi Graham

Is there a foundation within the Body Shop organisation which would help starting a "Social Venture Capital" company ? - Would be great to know, if you could help to start this wonderful idea!

Thanks for your reply!

Hi Graham,

I am currently looking for sponsors to finance the import of tractors into Ghana to support Cotton farmers, Soya beans and Groundnuts. I 've got suppliers in Japan who are ready to ship the consignment. Over here in Tamale, Northern, Our farmers need maximum support with farm inputs. There is vast land in Northern where sheanut trees are cut down or remove to pave way for cotton and Grain production. What help or support can you give to these farmers? We right alot on these websites but less in done with our ideas. How many investors visit their field of investments?

Business really fights poverty but i think investors should get their foots on field to support the puschase of farm machines to boost the Agric sector.

I just need one serious investor to invest into my village for a trial.

but i will try the West Africa Trade Hub.
