Closing the Last Mile: How Micro-Retailers Are Delivering Nutrition Across Kenya

Closing the Last Mile: How Micro-Retailers Are Delivering Nutrition Across Kenya In Kenya, 18% of children under 5 are stunted and over 81% of preschool children are zinc deficient. The Millers for Nutrition program connects fortified food producers with 5,000+ micro-retailers — called dukas — to get nutritious staples to the families who need them most.
