Strawberries are very perishable and need to be kept below room temperature at all times. Sadly the farmers may not have enough equipment to preserve the strawberries. This is where a smart thinking entrepreneur should come in. Before you can go into distribution of these fruits you need to device means of keeping them preserved, from transporting them, to storing then supplying. Quite expensive but very doable. |

Its actually quite a simple matter .The problem here is ignorance.I remember over 10 years ago my family made a trip to Jos and we lodged at the ECWA guest house there.Apart from the cold , the only other memorable thing was the fresh strawberry jam I had for breakfast(and fresh milk as well). So my submission to the farmers of strawberry in Plateau state is that they need to locally add value to their produce by: 1. Making strawberry jam (This will naturally be cheaper than the imported types and can definitely be made to a decent or even very high standard) 2.Developing a marketing strategy that will put that jam on every table in Nigeria. They can market through Konga, Jumia etc 3. If they are successful in convincing Nigerians to eat their bread with local strawberry jam, then that is just the beginning of greater things to come. A lot of stuff we consume in Nigeria like jam actually comes from communities abroad such as the ones we have in Plateau who have taken the bull by the horns and added value to their farming activities by creating consumer products, finding local and foreign markets and smiling to the bank all year round.It may not be very easy in the beginning, but victory is certain. Right now I have a jar of jam sitting in my fridge and I absolutely have nothing against having that fresh locally made in Jos strawberry jam taste again-I am a Jam buyer!
