UNIDO to launch EUR 2 mn project to improve Egyptian tomato quality: UNIDO will be launching a EUR 2 mn, three-year project in January to improve the quality of Egyptian tomatoes and develop the crop’s value chain, UNIDO Egypt Director Giovanna Ceglie told MENA. The project, which UNIDO will implement with the agriculture and trade and industry ministries, is meant to increase production levels and help locally-grown tomatoes reach international quality standards to make them viable for export to Europe, Ceglie said.
