Challenges Agatz Addresses

Challenges

Limited Access to Affordable and Quality Inputs

Resulting in lower turnover and margins for small-scale traders and artisans, and reduced yields for smallholder farmers.

Agatz operates a robust supply chain that facilitates affordable, quality input access by:

  • Collaborating with Agatz Wholesalers to deliver business inputs directly from manufacturers and importers to small-scale retailers and artisans.
  • Collaborating with Agatz Farmer Aggregators to deliver farm inputs and farming services that significantly improve yields.

Limited Means to Preprocess, Store, and Market Farm Output at Optimal Prices

Farmers are unable to obtain optimal prices for their produce.

Agatz partners with food processing companies to process, store, and market farmers' produce at the best obtainable prices.

Limited Business Acumen Among Small Entrepreneurs

Small business owners lack the tools and knowledge to manage and grow their businesses.

Agatz equips its partners with digital tools to:

  • Enable Wholesalers to validate input deliveries and closely monitor sales and repayment cycles.
  • Enable Farmer Aggregators to manage land leasing and acquisition, validate the delivery of farm inputs, and monitor application, harvesting, preprocessing, and final delivery of produce.
