A rather heart-warming mini-documentary (five minutes) on the onion business in Niger. The air freight GSA, ECS Group, is involved in Niger Air Cargo, but has also donated pumps locally to boost the local onion farmers and their exports. With markets around Africa, the question is whether one day Niger’s Galmi onions, which apparently melt when cooked, will arrive in Europe.

    Rather heart-warming indeed. Obvious questions about the weight/value proposition of onions, notwithstanding, I certainly wish them the best.
