Major Order from A2i Project P4G boosts Water Resilience Opening Africa for you Need an extra hand?ENGSKO A/S Secures Major Order in Africa Due to A2i ProjectOur member, ENGSKO A/S, has received a multi-million Danish kroner order as part of a Access2innovation, Danida-funded project aimed at improving living conditions for farmers in Uganda. “We have just sold a large plant worth two million Danish kroner to the Ugandan company New Kakinga Millers Enterprises Ltd. The agreement was made possible with the help of Access2innovation’s employee in Uganda, Yango Azando, who early in the Danida project arranged a meeting between us and the Ugandan mill New Kakinga to coordinate the groundwork for centers with Danish technology that will help Ugandan smallholders get more out of their harvest. That contact developed into the sale of a different type of mill than the one used in the project, but which New Kakinga will use in their own production in southwestern Uganda,” says Henrik Wollesen, CEO of ENGSKO A/S. “We would not have secured this order if we hadn’t met New Kakinga through the Danida project.”
