dc.description.abstractThis study aims to provide understanding of how value chain coordination in coffee sector influences smallholders upgrading in Tanzania. The study’s conceptual framework is based on global value chains and institutional perspective. Qualitative data collection approach through interviews, focus group discussions and documentary review was employed. Results indicate that critical factors can be grouped into institutional framework, standards, financing, and business management.
