In Kyazo, a fertile agricultural area in Rwanda’s Western Province, Jean Paul grows chili peppers.
- Role: setting
- In the article: Jean Paul grows chili peppers in Kyazo. Before Ox trucks, he pushed 100-kilo sacks on bicycles to town, then took a seven-hour bus ride to Kigali, a two-day ordeal. After renting space on an Ox truck in 2021 he went from 400 to 4,000 kg of peppers a week.
- Why it matters: Kyazo is the before/after case study that makes the abstract logistics claim concrete; the story depends on its distance from Kigali.
