A Global Leader in Market Systems Development
The best way to ensure durable outcomes for issues like food security, economic prosperity, and access to finance is through locally driven market solutions. ACDI/VOCA helps developing countries sustainably improve key economic sectors as partners in program design and implementation across the public and private sectors.
Public Sector
ACDI/VOCA is a leader in program design and technical implementation. Our work empowers those with limited economic opportunities through proven, effective, relevant, and innovative methodologies and tools. We are a global organization skilled in understanding and addressing local needs. As a trusted implementing partner for the U.S. Government, we also respond to non-USG official development assistance (ODA) and host country government opportunities.
Private Sector
ACDI/VOCA offers extensive networks and community relationships for corporations, foundations, or investors. We understand rural markets and appropriate technologies.
We help communities produce products that meet market standards, fostering future U.S. trading partners and expanding opportunities for U.S. businesses. By facilitating investment from the private sector in the countries where we work, we stretch the impact of the American taxpayer’s dollar and help create systems designed to endure when our work ends.
Corporations and Foundations
We help corporations and foundations penetrate new markets, reach the last mile, and increase profitability. Our private-sector partners share value, forge sustainable supply chains, and build the capacity of local players to end the need for U.S. assistance.
Financial institutions and impact investors
For financial institutions and impact investors, we deploy blended finance to catalyze commercial market solutions. We welcome engagement by financiers in our programs.
Corporate Citizens
With responsible corporate citizens, we co-design and implement community development projects that are sustainable and aligned with community interests, American and international development priorities, and a region’s competitive advantages. We also organize and manage corporate volunteer programs.
Vendors
We help vendors, especially those selling agricultural inputs, to build product distribution channels, demonstrate the comparative value of their technologies, and connect their target markets.
Commercial Buyers
For commercial buyers, such as agricultural millers or traders, we organize commercial groups of producers to coordinate production and delivery of quality products to buying stations.
Contracting Vehicles
ACDI/VOCA holds several contracting vehicles and issues Requests for Proposal (RFPs) to facilitate development activities.
