Kosmos Innovation Center (KIC) Ghana and AAMUSTED, in partnership with Premiere Poultry, have initiated the distribution of day-old chicks and feed to young agripreneurs starting poultry ventures.
The first disbursement, which took place in July 2025, saw a total of 500 day-old chicks delivered to 17 beneficiaries across 5 groups.
One group is based in Bonoso, while the remaining four are located in Mampong Zongo, all within the Ashanti Region.
Each group also received accompanying poultry feed to ensure proper care and early growth of the chicks.
This is part of the ongoing Young Farmer Business Academy (YFBA) program by KIC.
“This support reflects our belief that young people don’t just need training, they need the resources to get started,” said Terrence Tienaah, Programs Manager – KIC
The second round of distribution, involving 1,000 additional birds, is scheduled to begin Monday, further scaling the poultry production support for more YFBA beneficiaries.
This initiative demonstrates KIC’s commitment to turning agribusiness training into real business outcomes — with a focus on entrepreneurship, job creation, and food security.
“By working with experienced partners like Premiere Poultry, we ensure that our young agripreneurs have access to high-quality inputs and expert guidance as they launch their poultry enterprises,” Benjamin Gyan-Kesse, Executive Director – KIC
With more rounds of distribution planned, the YFBA program continues to provide practical, hands-on support to empower youth and transform Ghana’s agricultural landscape from the ground up.
