The end of year and final bi-monthly meeting of the Health Chiefs of Party with the USAID health team took place at the U.S. Embassy on December 6, 2017. Thirty-one persons were in attendance. The meetings theme was the Missions expanding health agenda with a focus on the enhancement of collaboration and coordination between partners and with USAID. It also served as an end of year celebration of our joint successes. Presentations were made by the health team on the activities they manage on Family Planning, Malaria, Neglected Tropical Diseases, Global Health Security, and Supply Chain.
As global buyers and sellers gathered for the first-ever Mango Symposium in northern Cote d’Ivoire, one South African company needed no introduction to the industry’s potential there. JAB Dried Fruit—one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of dried fruit, nuts and sweets in South Africa—had already contacted USAID’s West Africa Trade and Investment Hub to find suppliers there. At the event in April 2017 its CEO signed its first contract with an Ivorian partner.
