Call for experts: ECOM Coffee – Vietnam
Due to recent business development opportunities, we are looking to recruit experts for an upcoming technical assistance (TA) project in Vietnam.
About the project
The Asian Development Bank is procuring a TA team to support the implementation of a loan of up to $100 million to ECOM Agroindustrial Corp Ltd and its subsidiaries (ECOM). The TA will support smallholder coffee farmers in Vietnam to replant farms using climate-resilient agroforestry and regenerative agricultural practices. It will establish advanced demonstration farms focused on climate-resilient replanting in drought-prone areas of the Central Highlands.

This includes enhancing women’s roles in farm decision-making, and improving their financial and technical skills.
