One District One Product (ODOP) Training & Toolkit Distribution Scheme

The “One District One Product (Training & Toolkit Distribution) Scheme” is operated by the Government of Uttar Pradesh under the broader One District One Product (ODOP) Programme. The ODOP programme was launched in 2018 to promote unique local products in each district of Uttar Pradesh. This particular sub-scheme focuses on training artisans/entrepreneurs and distributing toolkits to equip the workforce. Its purpose is to strengthen the value-chain of district-specific products by building skills and providing tools, thus enabling you (as an MSME) to access better productivity and market opportunities.
