Each region of Madagascar has niche products such as vanilla, coffee, aromatic plants, essential oils, cocoa, lychee, which represent an important contribution to the Malagasy economy. Improving the yield, grading, and processing conditions of these products is an advantage for the economic development of the neighboring community, the region, and the country by contributing significantly to job creation and improving the quality and quantity of our raw materials to an international standard. It is in this sense that Fihariana supports project leaders and entrepreneurs. A correct exploitation of this potential would be a big asset in the economic growth of the country.
