Abstract

This report represents an initial attempt to provide a background to green bean production in Kenya and UK imports of green beans, and baseline information and data relating to the scale and significance of green bean production and exports from African countries to the UK. It ends with a summary of main findings including 'hot spots' in the supply chain for green beans, with potential routes forward for research and policy engagement.
