Afriagrimark is a geo-logistics marketplace revolutionizing the way small-scale farmers, drivers, and vendors interact within Africa’s agricultural supply chain. Founded in 2020 by Bonface Nyalwal, Afriagrimark is tackling one of the continent’s most persistent problems: the lack of fair, efficient market access for smallholder farmers. The company provides a seamless farm-to-market platform that not only coordinates the movement of fresh produce but also arranges for credit solutions, allowing retailers to purchase larger baskets of vegetables and pay later, thereby improving liquidity and boosting trade volumes.
The AfriScout app provides pastoralists with current information on water and vegetation conditions using digitized local community grazing maps. This data helps users make more accurate and cost-effective migration decisions, improve pasture management, and reduce the risk of herd loss.
Agpreneur is a transformative social enterprise that serves the smallholder farmers and agribusinesses in Nigeria and other developing countries. Agpreneur aims at empowering smallholder fish farmers with AI-powered tools, BNPL financing, and branded fish products for sustainable food security and climate resilience.
