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
- 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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
