Africa's farmers put in heroic work, yet up to a third of their harvest spoils before reaching market. Qilimo connects every loose end—from planting to payment—into one seamless digital thread, ensuring every drop of sweat finally pays off.
Mobile connectivity is rewriting the odds for African farmers. Today's smartphones reach nearly half the rural population, enabling farmers to scan QR codes, sign loans, summon tractors, and connect with buyers hundreds of kilometers away. When data can flow as easily as grain, new opportunities emerge for everyone in the agricultural value chain.
Qilimo picks up every loose end—planting dates, weather alerts, input orders, harvest weights, bids, payments—and knots them into one continuously updating dashboard. This single thread connects every step from soil to sale.
