Tanzania's Avocado sector is a new big thing; the numbers about potential speak for themselves! Today we witnessed the launch of the very first Tanzania Avocado guideline by the Minister of Agriculture, Hon. Hussein Bashe. The guideline aims at creating a robust and competitive Tanzania avocado industry. SCL is committed to a course and keen to make the sector more competitive.
