The Eastern Africa Grain Council (EAGC) has received a $2 million grant from TradeMark Africa to eliminate trade barriers for exporters in three East African countries.

The grant is part of a $75 million five-year partnership from the US Agency for International Development’s Economic Recovery and Reform Activity programme delivered by TradeMark Africa but funded by Feed the Future.
