The Besi Youth Association in North Malaita sold their first batch of local taro to Goshen Enterprise Limited yesterday.
In an interview with the chairman of the Besi Youth Association yesterday, Abel Wanesuia, he said this first sale is truly a breakthrough for them.
He said that it also demonstrates trust and it is a real market opportunity following their signed memorandum of understanding with Goshen Enterprise.
“It proves that the project is viable and that the market is real. This builds trust with partners like Goshen Enterprise Ltd and opens doors for long-term business relationships,” he said.
He said that marketing their own products also motivates and shifts the mindset of their young members.
“It surely will motivate our youths after earning their first sale, shifting their mindset from dependency to self-reliance,” he said.
He said financially, it will also begin the flow of income that can support further farming, expansion of production and as means to help sustain the association.
He said that it also strengthens their teamwork, discipline, and accountability among their members.
He thanks the Australian government for their support and the Almighty God for strength throughout their journey.
“We humbly acknowledge God for his guidance and strength throughout this journey. We also extend our sincere gratitude to the Australian government for their support,” he said.
