Business with social responsibility: launch, growth and challenges of native andean potatoes

Since we gave birth to the Native Andean potato industry in Ecuador in 2010, we have been able to significantly multiply them and now export to 30 countries in 5 continents. This has been the process of hard and collaborative work between development organizations such as the International Potato Center (CIP), the public sector represented by National Institute of Agricultural Research (INIAP) in Ecuador, farmers associations mostly Agropapa in Ecuador, and the private sector represented by our company Inalproces. This has clearly been an example where development organizations, the public and the private sector have worked to achieve a shared common goal and in the process raised income for low-income farmers.
