The Pwalugu Tomato Factory, whose growth mass is dependent on the project target area can make meaningful progress towards a reduction in poverty levels in the Northern regions and nearby countries. Improving water collection and storage, evolving farming techniques and income-driven farming, the villagers, thanks to education, are mostly literate and poor will go a long way.
The Tomatoes Factory, built in the early 1960’s had seen its share of ineptness, both political and inexperience. UTAP bears synergies in the supply chain of improving a year round raw material s (tomatoes) and profitability to stakeholders of the factory.
