many of today's value chain interventions have generally been unsuccessful in sustaining competitiveness in developing countries' value chains despite claims to the contrary by proponents of the value chain strategy.
By noting at the Strategy Focused Fundamentals you can find the following barriers as follows:
1. In the free-market environment that obtains in Africa, Private sector needs (profit) are likely to prevail over social and welfare concerns. 2. Lack of a strategy of co-ordination between private sector firms and African governments on production quantities, employment needs and training requirements for Africa.
Thanks Paul Kinyua, quite enlighting. You actually bring a new dimension on the barriers.
Thank you Arthur. We are better off understanding the 'political economy' constraints in African countries' value chains.
