The AGRIMAX Africa, an acronym of Agribusiness Maximization Africa Initiative is an approach in the agriculture sector which does not only encompass agribusiness; but also includes the production, the distribution of input materials, implements and agricultural service, as well as the distribution and agriculture products processing. It is an agribusiness system concept that places agriculture activities as a whole and comprehensive activity as well as model that examines and answers various smallholder farmers’ problems and challenges.

The Agrimax Africa Initiative aims to promote sustainable agriculture, curb malnutrition, promote food security and improve farmers’ livelihoods and seeks to identify and support innovative agribusiness solutions contributing to a sustainable and inclusive food system in Africa.

Smallholder farmers in developing countries face tough challenges to their productivity, growth, and sustainability – including lack of access to affordable financial products, limited knowledge of high-quality inputs, low usage of technology and market data, and poor market links across the value chain.

To close these gaps and help smallholder farmers thrive, Agrimax Africa implements innovative solutions in the agriculture sector to serve them. Agrimax Africa is a non-profit, hybrid organization that uses business methods to advance the social mission. In the case of agriculture, we often address a particular pain point in the value chain, with the intention that the cost of their services or products will be recovered through the benefits and income gains that smallholders will achieve.
