Economic, Trade and Private Sector Development

December 9, 2025

This Trade Success Stories booklet highlights the transformative results of UNDP South Sudan’s support for economic growth, trade development, and private-sector empowerment under the Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) and other donors. It showcases key achievements, including the development of the National Trade Policy Framework and Quality Policy, the establishment of South Sudan’s first E-commerce Hub, the launch of the digital marketplace Dukaanye.com, and the creation of Innovation Hubs (i-Hubs) that equip youth and women with digital skills, business development services, and job placement support.

The publication features human-interest stories of young entrepreneurs whose lives have changed through access to finance, entrepreneurship training, and digital opportunities, demonstrating how trade, innovation, and inclusive financing are unlocking livelihoods, promoting women and youth economic leadership, and strengthening South Sudan's competitive private sector.
