CONSULTANCY OPPORTUNITY Title: Investment Readiness Expert – TEREN Agro Locations: Lilongwe Expected Period: February 2025 – June 2025 1. CASA PROGRAMME OVERVIEW As a programme funded by the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) – International Climate Finance (ICF), CASA demonstrates the business case for global and national investment in climate-resilient agri-food systems that increase smallholder farmer incomes. The programme facilitates increased investment in agribusinesses by demonstrating the commercial and development potential of inclusive business models with smallholder farmer supply chains. CASA achieves this by: • Demonstrating the commercial viability – and building the investment-readiness – of small and medium-sized (SME) agribusinesses with smallholder farmer supply chains • Helping impact and return-oriented investors to increase the impact of their investments through the provision of inclusive technical assistance • Strengthening the voices of smallholder producers (especially of women in agribusiness decision-making) and their positions within supply chains (through improved offtaking or aggregation arrangements), and • Filling the information, evidence and learning gaps holding back investment. To demonstrate the commercial and development potential of business models with smallholder farmer supply chains, CASA Component A (Market Systems Development), implemented by NIRAS and Swisscontact, pilots catalytic interventions within agricultural value chains in Ethiopia, Malawi, Nepal and Rwanda (and formerly Uganda) that support agri-SMEs to prepare for and secure investment while connecting smallholder farmers to commercial markets and building their resilience in the face of climate change. 2. ASSIGNMENT BACKGROUND Several challenges hamper the overall productivity of the aquaculture sector here in Malawi. One of the most persistent challenges is limited access to quality feed - feed accounts for about 60 to 80% of total production costs in aquaculture production - as most feed is still imported from Zambia, while locally produced feed, although a little cheaper, is still unaffordable and inaccessible to poor farmers across the country. CASA has facilitated a tripartite partnership between TEREN Agro, a local manufacturer of floating fish feeds, and MlimiPay, an innovative payment solutions company, to address the underlying problem and make high quality fish feeds more accessible and affordable. The partnership will also enable TEREN Agro and MlimiPay to effectively collaborate in the provision of quality inputs and extension and advisory services on favourable terms to the smallholder fish farmers with whom the partnership will work. The two companies will work with smallholder farmers from Lilongwe and surrounding districts, which are easily accessible to the two Lilongwe-based companies, through legally binding contractual arrangements. Through this tripartite partnership, TEREN Agro will expand its customer base while reducing feed delivery costs. By aggregating input orders and delivering them directly to farming communities, TEREN Agro will be able to achieve cost-effective distribution at no additional expense to the farmers. As this partnership serves as a pilot initiative to establish a commercially viable expansion model, TEREN Agro plans to onboard more smallholder farmers, invest in warehousing facilities, and introduce an affordable lay-buy scheme. To support this effort, CASA Malawi is seeking an Investment Readiness Short-Term Technical Assistant (STTA) to help develop a comprehensive and commercially sustainable investment plan. About TEREN Agro TEREN Agro Limited, a subsidiary of TEREN Investments, was established by Temwanani Phiri and Taziona Chigwe.

With grant support, TEREN Agro invested in machinery to increase production capacity by 900% to 1 tonne per hour. In 2023, the company is projected to have a turnover of MK361 million (£270,482) and employ seven people. The company is positioned for growth in the aquaculture sector and is seeking to collaborate with motivated partners.

Furthermore, the company provides the Mlimi Digital Advisor, which offers agronomic guidance and weather updates to farmers. 3.
