Supporting coffee farmers in Rwenzori through financial literacy trainings

Kyagalanyi Coffee Limited and IFC are equipping farmers with financial skills to build resilient businesses and communities.

In Uganda’s Rwenzori region, coffee farmers have gained financial skills that are helping them build stronger, more resilient businesses. Through a collaboration between Kyagalanyi Coffee Limited (Volcafe in Uganda) KCL and IFC (a leading development bank), a financial literacy training programme – delivered via the Village Savings and Loans Association (VSLA) model – has equipped farmers with essential tools to better manage their finances and investments.

Building financial skills for sustainable growth

Since the programme’s launch, 75 VSLAs have been established, bringing together over 2,500 coffee farmers. These groups serve as a vital platform for farmers to save, access credit, and develop smart financial strategies tailored to their needs.
