Gros-Morne, Haiti
Gros-Morne is a growing community of the struggling working class and subsistent farmers located in the Artibonite department of Haiti between Gonaives and Port-de-Paix. Gros-Morne has a growing population of about 125,000 incorporating eight communal sections. Thisarea has to deal with numerous struggles but the most prevalent ones revolve around the issue of food resources, work availability and thus a self-sustainable economy. To form a sustainable solution for this situation, Kembé decided to start a social-entrepreneurial project. After setting up the business, it will be released, as it is self-sustaining.
After substantial research, it was chosen to set up a chicken farm. This business was chosen from from a number of potential projects, including growing mushroom and a handicraft business.
