Bai Bureh Conteh, owner of Leecon, has extensive experience in the poultry sector. He also provides technical assistance to new entrants and smaller farmers in the industry. Image: Leecon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Sixteen years ago, Bai Bureh Conteh, founder of Leecon, started activities in the poultry sector using all his savings. He started with a small scale farm, with only 700 birds. Despite the series of challenges that Leecon faced, the business has grown gradually with consistent re-investment of profits to the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the investment from Cordaid, they had 15,000 layers. This has increased to 30,000 after the investment. Bai Bureh Conteh highlights the challenges in the sector: &#8220;Feed is a huge challenge because almost every poultry input is imported. It is quite challenging and expensive to import from overseas especially for small farmers.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>&#8220;Cordaid Investments\u2019 loan has helped grow my business and to improve production efficiency in my farm.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Depreciation of the local currency &nbsp;is also a major challenge. &#8220;Businesses that depend on imported inputs struggle to be profitable. If you are trading in Leones a devaluation of the Leones against hard currencies negatively impacts cost of production. And the need for working capital increases&#8221;, he continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loan in local currency mitigates risks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Saio Kuyateh, Cordaid Investment Manager in Sierra Leone, has significant experience in poultry sector development projects. &#8220;The poultry industry is dominated by small farmers who lack the finance to import high quality feed ingredients&#8221;, he explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Instead they go for local substitutes that lack the nutrition content necessary to attain a high production efficiency. Like most agriculture businesses, Sierra Leone\u2019s poultry sector struggles to access finance to grow and develop.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cordaid Investments supported Leecon with a loan in local currency to grow the business. &#8220;My loan contract with Cordaid is in local currency&#8221;, says&nbsp;Bai Bureh Conteh. &#8220;But I received the funds in foreign currency equivalence so I can pay my foreign suppliers directly. This helped to mitigate foreign currency risks I was exposed to when sourcing inputs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Making businesses sustainable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Saio Kuyateh regularly contacts and visits Bai Bureh Conteh and his company. They discuss financial and non-financial aspects of the business. In one of his recent visits to the site, Saio learned that the feed business has started and that Leecon is currently supplying to six small poultry farmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our investment has helped Leecon tackle their challenge of accessing long term growth capital and has also positioned them to provide quality feeds to small farmers who cannot afford to import large quantities of inputs at affordable prices. This will not only improve profit margins for farmers. It will also help them offer competitive prices for their products. And it makes their businesses sustainable&#8221;, underlines Saio Kuyateh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating employment opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cordaid Investments\u2019 loan will also help to create employment opportunities. Leecon currently employs 25 people (80% youth). With this project they plan to create 9 more direct jobs. Bai Bureh Conteh: &#8220;Cordaid Investments\u2019 loan has been really helpful, it has helped grow my business. I have employed more people as a result of the funds. It has also helped to improve production efficiency in my farm.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/cordaidinvestment.com\/\">Cordaid Investment Management<\/a> website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Since 2021 Cordaid is no longer operational in Sierra Leone<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Egg consumption in Sierra Leone is estimated at 200 million eggs annually.
