CEFE International enables people and supports their governments to improve living conditions
by empowering their economies.
About us
Based in Cologne – Germany, CEFE International(CI) has two core businesses. On one side, we work as a managing consultant company in the private sector development. We work with organisations from international cooperation, ministries, and the public sector to help them successfully achieve their project goals.
Conversely, CEFE International is a social business because we use our entire annual surplus to sustain the CEFE network. The purpose of the CEFE Network is to develop tools, concepts and innovative instruments to overcome current challenges in private sector development. The worldwide experience of CEFE experts allows us to know first-hand local needs and implement tailor-made solutions.
Our main goal is to promote MSMEs and strengthen Start-ups to empower sustainable economic development. To achieve this, we work at the meso level, managing international projects funded by multilateral and bilateral cooperation agencies. At the micro level, our CEFE experts offer capacity development to MSMEs and Start-ups to help them to improve their business performance, boost their competitiveness and access to new markets.
Our remarkable trajectory in the private sector development has given us the know-how to consolidate three of our main divisions:
