Mardochee Dumervil
Mardochée works in the Community Development sector leading UCDV (Union des cadres pour le développement de Villard). This fellow is a social entrepreneur who helps farmers to transform their basic raw materials into manufactured products. UCDV’s products will eventually be sold throughout the country, but for now, the business is focused on the department of Artibonite and part of the west of the country. Flour is used for making traditional rice bread. What makes UCDV unique is the quality of its products and the difference between what it produces and the quality of that obtained by traditional methods. UCDV uses half-dried rice to produce its flour, and that results in much better bread. Coming to the YLAI Fellowship, Mardochée’s top business challenge is Scaling and Expansion.
