Tamar Tkemaladze is an active woman entrepreneur from the village of Maradisi, Marneuli municipality. Her family has a greenhouse and mainly produces a variety of vegetables. To expand the production and help her family, Tamar participated in the Women’s Economic Empowerment project supported by UN Women. With the help of the project, Tamar purchased a tractor and along with the simplification of labor, her family’s income has also increased.
Tamar mainly produces vegetables: cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, Chinese cabbage and cauliflower, broccoli, etc. In the future she wants to develop and increase production. For this, she needs special equipment to poison the seedlings.
The project “Women’s Economic Empowerment through Social Mobilization and Capacity Building” is supported by Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), Austrian Development Cooperation (ADC) and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), implemented in Georgia by Kakheti Regional Development Foundation (KRDF), Taso Foundation (TF), and CARE International in the Caucasus (CARE).
