They are basically broadband, collaboration and encouragement put together.

It will also seek to improve fresh produce value chains, and the development of supply chains for novel or non traditional agro produce products for high value markets. Priority will be given to

Since TML cannot maintain its competitive advantage without having a competitive vendor base, a three pronged approach to beneficial development and upgrading of its suppliers was developed to ensure an efficient process flow within the value chain

And we need to understand, it's the value chain.
