The good example is in East Africa where both local and regional markets for sweetpotato are fast developing. With the exception of South Africa, the possibilities of exporting sweetpotato for niche markets in Europe and US is being explored mainly in Uganda. However, the sustained supply of high quality roots which fit the international standards remaina major limiting factor.
