    Making nutritious and safe foods available, accessible, affordable and desirable for improved nutrition requires action from all stakeholders in the food system, including producers, processors, retailers, and consumers, in both private and public institutions. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the food industry play a pivotal role. This report presents findings from a FAO/GAIN workshop on ‘Leveraging Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to Improve Nutrition’, with a dual focus on 1) identifying opportunities and constraints to the contribution of SMEs to healthy diets and nutrition-sensitive food systems; and 2) identifying ways to help SMEs build on good nutrition as a ‘business opportunity’.
