Guatemala

In 2022, we started operating directly from Guatemala, with a Good Food for Cities programme in Guatemala City and Solóla, and a Cocoa & coffee programme.

As of 2015, we have been indirectly active in the country through a regional knowledge management project in Central America’s cocoa sector. In 2016, we started implementing another regional knowledge management project directed at the horticulture sector.
