About Us
Connecting smallholder farmers to regional and global markets
Afrikamart is a forward-thinking agritech company committed to transforming the agricultural value chain in Africa. Since our founding in 2019, we have been driven by the mission to bridge the gap between smallholder farmers and high-value markets. Through our innovative platform, we ensure that farmers in Senegal, Mali, and Morocco can access regional and global markets with ease, providing them with the tools and market insights they need to thrive.
​
One of the core principles guiding our operations is the ability to offer consistent product quality. We work closely with our farmers to meet the standards and expectations of buyers, ensuring that every product we trade adheres to sustainability and food safety standards. This commitment to quality and safety is a cornerstone of Afrikamart’s value proposition, as we aim to build long-term trust and reliability between farmers and buyers.

At Afrikamart, we focus on sustainability not just in the way we source and trade products, but in how we build ecosystems that support both environmental responsibility and inclusive growth. By integrating women and young workers into our supply chains, we foster economic development while promoting practices that protect the environment and ensure food security for future generations.

Technology
At Afrikamart, we combine cutting-edge technology with our agent-based model, which ensures that we stay connected to the realities of the ground. Our extensive network of agents works directly with farmers, conducting field visits, aggregating products, and ensuring that produce meets market standards in terms of quality and quantity.
​
Our technology platform is designed to enhance this agent network by utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to streamline processes, automate quality checks, and offer real-time insights into market demand.
Through AI, we can:
-
Optimize product aggregation by analyzing data from the field, ensuring that the right quality and volumes of produce are collected and ready for market.
-
Detect product quality issues, allowing our agents to swiftly address concerns such as defects or inconsistencies in size and maturity.
-
Provide real-time market pricing and insights to both farmers and buyers, ensuring transparency and enabling quick decision-making in a dynamic market environment.
​
Afrikamart’s technology doesn’t just enhance operations—it empowers farmers by giving them access to markets they might not otherwise reach, all while ensuring transparency and building trust along the supply chain.
