How easy or hard is it to develop Afghan economy? The answer might surprise you. Business

Beyond Borders introduces the initial project for Afghanistan called the Push-Cart Initiative (PCI), which is a

street vending program that provides business ownership opportunity to 4028 young men and women in

Afghanistan. The push carts are expertly designed and manufactured by the US companies equipped with

multi application capabilities such as: (popcorn machine, cotton candy machine, snow cone machine, hot food

containers, etc.)

Among many projects, we feel this project should be prioritized for

numerous reasons: (1) Health and food safety standards; (2)

young people in a team format ("Brother/Sister Team",

"Husband/Wife Team and/or "Mother/Son Team") will own a

lucrative business for less than $7 a day (to lease the push

cart) and be able to make $30 to $85 dollar per day income;

(3) the project will pour in over 30 Million US dollars per year

to Afghan economy; and (4) the entrepreneur will be able to pay

local taxes to the Afghan government.

In the current situation 90 percent of Afghan kids have no access to quality Kids Groceries Products such as :(

candies, gums, popcorn, etc.), and according to statistics, 80 percent of kids get sick because of food

contaminations. BBB will supply quality products, train entrepreneurs in food safety procedures, and mange

the day to day operation.

Product Breakthrough and IDEAS First shipment is expected to arrive in Afghanistan by August, 2012 and hopefully by August, 2014, we should

be able to complete deliveries of 2014 units Push Carts in 4 major cities in Afghanistan. If the program remains

successful, the number of units will be incrementally expanded to rural areas of the country.
