Harvestly

Problem

Smallholder farmers sell to middlemen at half the city price because they can't reach buyers or move produce before it spoils.

Çözüm

Harvestly takes orders from restaurants and grocers a day ahead, collects from farms at dawn and pays farmers by mobile money the same evening.

Kimin için

Farmers within 150 km of a city, and the restaurants and grocers they supply.

Pazar

Bottom-up: about 75,000 customers like this in Kenya and nearby, worth roughly $240 million a year at our prices.
