About BAWYP

A private non-profit institution dedicated to empowering micro and small businesses for prosperity. We offer a 360-degree support to businesses. We use practical learning techniques, peer-to-peer interactions, on-site coaching, health & wellness campaigns, and business incubators.

Our Target Beneficiaries

Africa is gifted with women and young entrepreneurs. Research indicates that Africa has the highest rate of female entrepreneurs globally. BAWYP seeks to serve these indigenous entities. A lot of them are unnoticed and remain underserved within existing business support interventions. Their needs are unmet due to factors including but not limited to ignorance and low self-esteem. Owners might not even know what they want and, in some cases, lack the confidence to express their needs and to access relevant interventions.

Our target sectors are:

Market woman
Trade
An african beautician attending to a client
Beauty & Cosmetics
A cocoa farmer holding a pod
Agriculture & Agro-processing
An african carpenter cutting wood
Manufacturing
An african caterer preparing food
