This initiative is more than just words; it&#8217;s about action. By breaking down barriers and facilitating market integration, the Activity is on a mission to ensure these businesses don&#8217;t just survive but thrive in the market. Their work is cut out for them, but the results are promising within a mere 6 months, as 31 businesses have successfully marked their presence in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fatjona Kasapi, who runs Fati Bio Farm in Peja, has been an example of resilience in the face of challenges common to female entrepreneurs in Kosovo. With the Activity&#8217;s support, she expanded her cheese market and formed three strategic partnerships in Peja penetrating into several restaurants. Then there&#8217;s Slavica Djokic of Red Diamond, a goji berry enterprise. Under the Activity&#8217;s guidance, her business went digital and saw a significant boost in demand, all attributed to their presence in a special online category for women and minority businesses at Dyqani.com. She sold by now a significant share of products through online presence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kosovo&#8217;s entrepreneurs, especially women and minorities, have found a strong ally in the USAID Inclusive Economic Engagement Activity.
