Export Strategy for the Circular Bio-Economy
What we do
We are committed to providing a world-class education for all of our students, regardless of their background, or circumstances
Our Impact
Our online courses have been a catalyst for change, and the impact it has had on farmer’s lives is nothing short of remarkable. Today, more than 10 000 SMEs are learning in our partner countries.
Partner Countries
We are an unprecedented alliance of experts & international organizations working to empower more than 10 000 students in lower-income countries to reach their potential.
Quality Teaching
Teachers are the heart and soul of education systems. The Export Mentor Collective helps partner countries improve the quality of life by empowering farmers, and ensuring they are qualified, motivated and well supported.
Small change. Big change.
We help exporters, producer groups and trade professionals build the skills and compliance know-how to access international markets.
Export Mentor training has been delivered through international development programs and directly to companies in the agrifood sector — including engagements in Iraq's date sector, Trinidad and Tobago's cocoa and nutraceutical industries, and turmeric value chain development in Odisha, India. Our courses serve producers, traders, business support organizations and policymakers, with content available in English, Spanish and Russian.
Open a whole world of education
In our platform, you will find all of our available online courses. Here you can also connect with our global student community.
Stories of change
María Fernanda López
Bogotá, Colombia
“As
the export manager for a 200-member coffee cooperative, I thought we
already had our plan figured out. But the course’s section on turning
vague ambitions into measurable SMART export goals completely re-framed
our roadmap. In three months we’ve secured two new EU buyers and our
members finally see clear milestones, not just dreams.”
Amina Yusuf
Naivasha, Kenya
“I joined
because I’m grooming my eldest daughter to run our flower-export firm.
The succession-planning lessons pushed me to document SOPs, map a
two-year hand-over, and involve her in buyer meetings early. For the
first time I can picture stepping back without fearing the company’s
future.”
Priya Iyer
Coimbatore, India
“I run a
family-owned home-textile mill, and my biggest headache was quoting
prices that protected us from currency swings. The module on Incoterms
and forward contracts finally clicked for me—I renegotiated one
long-term contract using FOB Chennai + a 90-day forward hedge and cut
our loss exposure by almost 4 %. My accountant thinks I’ve turned into a
finance nerd!”
