The USAID Eastern and Southern Caribbean Mission and the Guyana Economic Development Trust (GEDT) have launched an incubator and accelerator for Guyanese agro-processors.
According to a press release from the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and GEDT, the processing of agricultural outputs or agro-processing is becoming an increasingly important source for employment. Agro-processing can also contribute to wealth creation for small-scale operators and marginalized groups in Guyana.
