Consultancy for Credi-Enterprise Market Assessment, Product Refinement and Rollout Support

VisionFund Kenya is a microfinance institution regulated by the Central Bank of Kenya. It serves farming households and small businesses in communities where World Vision runs its Area Programmes. We are preparing a technical assistance project with Alterfin under the SSNUP (Smallholder SustaiNability Upscaling Programme) to scale Credi-Enterprise, our value chain financing product for producer groups. The product was piloted in Mweiga, and we now plan to extend it to two new Area Programmes, Angurai and Bomet.

We are looking for a qualified consultant or firm to support this scale-up, from the initial market assessment through to product rollout.

Scope of work

  1. Market and needs assessment in Angurai and Bomet

The consultant will assess the two areas through engagement with producer groups, traders, buyers and World Vision AP teams. The assessment should establish:

  • the main agricultural value chains and the financing needs along each of them
  • household income levels and sources across on-farm, off-farm and non-farm activities
  • planting and harvesting periods, and when and where households receive income
  • market access and prices for key produce, the presence of offtakers, and the extent of contract farming
  • how producer groups are organised, and whether members produce, save or market together
  • the main risks farmers face and the insurance cover they need
  • nutrition-sensitive crops and livestock the product should finance
  1. Product refinement

Working with VFK's Product, Risk and Portfolio teams, the consultant will adapt Credi-Enterprise to the assessment findings. This covers loan sizes, repayment schedules aligned to harvest and income periods, group lending structures, eligibility and appraisal criteria, and the supporting credit policy.

  1. Bundled micro-insurance

The consultant will engage insurance providers to identify and negotiate the most suitable and affordable micro-insurance to bundle with the loan. The cover should be easy for farmers to understand, and its claims process should work in rural settings.

  1. Producer group training materials

The consultant will develop practical training materials on financial literacy and good farming practices, including climate-smart and nutrition-sensitive agriculture. The materials should suit low-literacy groups, and VFK and World Vision staff must be able to deliver them.

  1. Staff training

The consultant will train VFK loan officers, risk and portfolio staff on the refined product: appraisal, disbursement, monitoring and reporting. The training will also cover how to deliver the producer group training.

Expected deliverables

  • A market assessment report for Angurai and Bomet
  • A refined Credi-Enterprise product paper and credit policy
  • A bundled insurance product agreed with an insurance partner
  • Producer group training manuals and materials
  • Staff training delivered, together with a rollout guide
