Let’s #PersistTogether: We support small Cypriot producers
#ΑΚΤΙ_ngo #greencluster
AKTI Project and Research Center is launching a campaign today to support a large group of our quarantine-affected citizens: the small-scaled Cypriot producers all over the country, are producing great products and are currently excluded from the having no way to reach their customers.
AKTI has developed during the past 5 years the Cyprus Small Business Platform, Green Cluster (http://www.greenclustercy.org), which is today the largest small business network in Cyprus with 380 members. Based on our platform, today we are starting an effort to bring ‘excluded’ consumers into contact with ‘excluded’ small producers. We have already spoken to over 50 producers who are in despair and believe in this endeavour: honey, halloumi, Easter cheese, carob syrup, tarhana, ravioli, oil and many more. They do not have a distribution network, however if they have orders they will cooperate with each other and a solution will be found.
We invite our fellow citizens to visit AKTI’s platform, www.greenclustercy.org, and follow AKTI on Facebook AKTI/ AKTI Project and Research Center and on Instagram
https://www.instagram.com/akti_ngo/. Every day we will present producers on our social media and website. Let every citizen make the effort to find the producers that are close to them or even further away, contact them and work out a solution on how to get their products delivered. We at AKTI will contact distribution companies, e.g. food, shipping companies etc so we can all come together and find a solution. We invite anyone who can help to reach us. We can set up this network of mutual support.
These days let’s all show solidarity. Social distancing does not mean stay locked, impassive and miserable. We #StayHome and #PersistTogether: We support small Cypriot producers.
