Trademark East Africa, an economic development engine funded by the several countries including the US, is looking for PR agency support to reach North American and European media.
The Kenya-based not-for-profit representing a fast-growing, yet conflict-torn region of 140M people includes countries like Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Somalia and South Sudan. It works to foster trade partners, support development efforts through funding, and provide technical assistance.
Among its goals for 2016 are a 10% increase in exports and a 30% decrease in the time it takes a truck to cross selected borders.
"As TMEA is funded by a range of European and North American donors, it is important to get visibility of our projects and communicate the successes and impacts to this important external audience," reads the RFP.
Proposals are due Sept. 8.
