We promote MSMEs and Start-ups to empower national economies

Our main goal is to promote MSMEs and strengthen Start-ups to empower sustinable economic development

About Us

Based in Cologne – Germany, CEFE International(CI) has two core businesses. On one side, we work as a managing consultant company in private sector development. We work with organisations from international cooperation, ministries, and the public sector to help them to successfully achieve their project goals.

Our main goal is to promote MSMEs and strengthen Start-ups to empower sustainable economic development. To achieve this, we work on 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 Goals and Values

Our overall goal is the promotion of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) to empower national economies; for this purpose, we have set up a couple of ground rules that guide our daily work and the way how we work and interact with our team members, clients, external partners, experts, and beneficiaries.

Team Spirit

We strongly believe that teamwork is essential to delivering our service. We work in collaboration and mutual respect, with everyone pulling together to achieve our project’s goals.
Reliability

We believe “consistency” is the key to building trust in our working relationships. Our work is client satisfaction oriented, but our main goal is to provide innovative solutions that our beneficiaries need to overcome challenges.
Innovation

We assume a deep commitment to continually improving and challenging ourselves and each other to provide the best tools and services that help ventures and MSMEs to overcome current challenges.
Communication

We communicate proactively to build collaborative, meaningful and sustainable relationships between our team members and stakeholders. We express our message with clarity, concision and confidence.
