Abstract
This fact sheet provides guidance on selecting the correct location for an agri-input store, emphasizing key considerations such as environmental factors, site access, and customer proximity. The store must be positioned far from domestic areas, flood-prone zones, and water sources to prevent contamination and accidents, particularly as it often stores hazardous materials like toxic, flammable, and corrosive substances. Adequate access for customers, delivery, and emergency vehicles is essential for smooth operation. Moreover, the location should be easily accessible for farmers, who often rely on public transportation. This manual focuses on the importance of proper store placement to ensure safety, accessibility, and environmental protection.
