The Global Distributors Collective (GDC) is a collective of last mile distributors around the world, dedicated to supporting distributors to reach millions of unserved customers with life-changing products, and to developing the last mile distribution sector as a whole. The GDC has more than 180 members in 50 countries who have jointly helped over 30 million people benefit from products with high positive impact such as solar lights, improved cookstoves and water filters. The GDC’s ambition is to make last mile distribution the first priority, so that life-changing products can be made affordable and available to all. The GDC is hosted by international development organisation Practical Action and activities are delivered in consortium with two implementing partners, Bopinc and Hystra.
