This Entrepreneur Is Using Solar-Powered Cold Rooms to Cut Down Food Spoilage in Nigeria (Global Citizen) 

August 12, 2020


Global Citizen published an article on food security. Despite contributing 22% to Nigeria’s gross domestic product (GDP), agriculture in Nigeria is still beset with many problems. Food spoilage is one of those problems and a big contributor to reduced farmer income and supply chain bottlenecks faced by Nigeria’s agricultural industry.  Tackling food spoilage is important because, according to IFPRI, it is estimated that a 10% reduction in global food loss will result in an 11% decrease in hunger, and a 4% decrease in child malnutrition worldwide.
