01.01 Décrivez votre projet en détail

Recently, Tanzania gained momentum with strong political will in transformation from traditional cooking energies (biomass energies) to smart cooking energies, with the goal of 80% Tanzania population use smart cooking energies by 2034. Thus, country need ambitious, energetic and committed youth to assist the country effort on smart cooking energies. The KIMSAM SMART COOKING DISTRIBUTORS will be a youth led project with the primarily goal to ensure cost-effective access and delivery of the liquified petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders, Gas stove and appliances. similarly, the project will enhance community awareness rising on the use of smart cooking energies. This will add to the country effort on the adoption of smart cooking energies. The project will be launched at Morogoro region, where there is still low progress in adoption of smart cooking energy

01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

The project will inevitably solve the main two hindrance on the adoption of smart cooking methods. Firstly, limited accessibility and affordability of the LPG cylinders and appliances. Secondly, human behaviors change and awareness rising, that directly or indirectly will have an impact on human health, environment health, and socioeconomic significance. With regard to various researches conducted in Tanzania (rural and urban), it is revealed that the adoption and transformation to smart cooking energy succumbed by lack of awareness and education to consumers (end user) and investors even. For instance, bad perception that electricity become too expensive for cooking, deep rooted sociocultural perceptions on the use of firewood and charcoal, limited awareness on the range of availability of LPG.

05.08 Justification de mon projet

The project mainly intended to distribute LPG cylinders and appliances to various groups. Indeed, the product and services are new to many targeted users especially in rural areas with limited access to it. However, the project will hold its peculiarity in service delivery, target groups, and enterprise version and technology.

05.09 Qui sont vos principaux potentiels concurrents et qu'est-ce qui vous différencie d'eux ?

In spite of limited existing distributors of LPG cylinders in towns of pilot regions, our project intended to be unique in major three elements namely service delivery, price, and community awareness. Actually, at Maswa district in Simiyu region, only one distributor of LPG cylinder available with none supply in rural areas. Also, at Morogoro where somewhat extent distributors available but with quite different service delivery compared to the proposed project. Thus far, the project will deploy and maintain its peculiarity to overcome any competitors, as well as foresee other opportunities that will make the project unique as the market technology change together with human behavior change.
