- Description
- USAID/Peru will be implementing a program with the overall general purpose to help reduce poverty in targeted areas of Peru through trade-led growth. This activity focuses on linking micro, small, and medium sized enterprises (MSMEs) to new markets where Peruvian businesses potentially can be competitive. The recently signed U.S.-Peru Trade Promotion Agreement (PTPA), for example, will provide thousands of MSMEs a competitive advantage over MSMEs in other countries for lucrative U.S. markets. It is designed to build on the success of the previous ten year program, implemented by Chemonics International, but it also seeks to align with regional economic development initiatives implemented by the Government of Peru and Regional Governments. The objectives of this activity are to: (1) Expand the ESC model in the impoverished Sierra Departments of Peru to improve the competitiveness of MSMEs; (2) Create strategic public-private partnerships to reduce poverty through trade-led growth; and (3) Increase private and public investments in infrastructure and business development services to support market-led economic activities in the targeted regions. USAID/Peru will be issuing an RFP for this program.
