What we stand for
We exist to help build strong SMEs that will create jobs, contribute to the reduction of poverty, and food insecurity in West Africa and beyond
Who we are
Mobile Business Clinic (MBC) Africa was set up in 2012 under the name Mobile Business Clinic (MBC) as a collaborative initiative between the Lundin Foundation, Engineers Without Borders (EWB) Canada, and Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) through the West Africa Technical Assistance Facility (WATAF). WATAF was conceived to address the technical and managerial constraints affecting the growth of agricultural SMEs in West Africa. MBC Africa began its first training for SMEs in agribusiness in Accra in 2013 and later expanded to other forms of training within the agricultural sector.
In 2016, Mobile Business Clinic rebranded to MBC Africa and merged with Business Development Services Africa (BDSA Ghana) to form a single organization. The mission of the united organization is to equip African entrepreneurs in various sectors, including but not limited to agriculture, with the business solutions and support services they need to build competitive and sustainable businesses.
