As #WBGMeetings close, I’m encouraged by strong partner interest in delivery—Water Forward, AgriConnect, Mission 300, HealthWorks. The focus is about turning ambition into results. In uncertain times, the need for measurable, reliable solutions grows— & that is our responsibility

From farm to market—🇿🇼Zimbabwean horticulture is thriving in 🇪🇺Europe The EU is the largest buyer of Zimbabwe’s horticultural 🍊🫐🌱exports, with over 40% of produce like blueberries, citrus, and sugar snap peas heading to European markets. Thanks to the Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA), Zimbabwean goods enjoy duty-free, quota-free access to all 27 EU markets—unlocking real opportunities for growth and jobs. 📈 EU–Zimbabwe trade has grown by over 30% in the past three years —with Zimbabwe enjoying a strong trade surplus. More Zimbabwean businesses can still seize this opportunity by meeting 🇪🇺EU standards and scaling up exports. 📍Join the EU and #TeamEurope at the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair (#ZITF2026) in Hall 4 next week and discover how businesses can tap into EU markets and make the most of this preferential trade access 🇪🇺 #EUinZim🇪🇺🇿🇼 #Trade #EPA

EU Delegation to Zimbabwe 🇪🇺
🫛🫐From a smallholder plots around Zimbabwe to a supermarket shelf in #Europe — that journey is real, and @kumindafresh is making it happen. This morning, #EU🇪🇺 Ambassador @HagemannKatrin visited the Kuminda Packhouse in Pomona, hosted by CEO and Co-founder @MwaleClarence. Kuminda works with more than 5,000 smallholder farmers — the majority of them women — aggregating, grading and cold-chain exporting mange tout, sugar snap peas and blueberries to the EU and the UK. 🇪🇺 Did you know? Under Zimbabwe's Economic Partnership Agreement (#EPA) with the EU, Zimbabwean mange tout and sugar snap peas enter the EU market completely #dutyfree and #quotafree. That means more value stays here in Zimbabwe. Blueberries — pioneered by smallholder farmers working with Kuminda — arrive on 🇪🇺EU shelves up to three weeks before competitors from Peru and Chile. That is a natural advantage that Zimbabwean farmers are now capitalising on. The EU is Zimbabwe's largest buyer of #horticultural produce, and we are committed to deepening that partnership. ✅Meet us at @ZITF1 next week in Hall 4 to learn more! #EUinZim🇪🇺🇿🇼 #EPA #Horticulture #Kuminda

At @IFE_Event, 17 Kenyan women-led businesses brought avocados, coffee, herbs, nuts, and fresh fruits and vegetables to buyers in the United Kingdom. They are part of a UK-Kenya trade relationship that reached £2.1 billion in the four quarters to the end of Q3 2025, up 9.2% from the year before. As more women-led businesses take part, businesses in Kenya grow and UK consumers gain more choice. #SheTrades | #GoFarGoTogether

Coffee and fresh produce, two of the UK’s top goods imports from Rwanda, were the focus for 12 women at @IFE_Event, London. The visit gave them direct time with buyers and a clearer sense of the UK market.
