What we do

A digital infrastructure for agricultural trade.

Shamba Connect brings fragmented production, quality, aggregation and market information into one controlled environment. This helps supply networks become more visible, accountable and ready for structured markets.

Farmer and organisation registry

Structured farmer, household, farm, group, cooperative and location records support a dependable sourcing network.

Production visibility

Crop, season, acreage, expected yield and field activity records create an evidence-based view of supply.

Aggregation and traceability

Produce can be followed from origin through bulking, quality assessment, packaging and marketplace publication.

Digital marketplace

Buyers discover available produce, review public specifications and submit sourcing requirements without exposing private farmer data.

Financial inclusion

The platform supports responsible pathways to credit, insurance and digital payments, subject to consent and appropriate controls.

Market intelligence

Operational data supports planning, programme design, partner reporting and more informed market decisions.

How the platform works

From production records to market connection.

01

Register

Farmers, groups, farms and locations form the verified sourcing foundation.

02

Record

Production, field activity, expected yield and quality information is captured.

03

Aggregate

Produce is organised through groups, VSLAs and bulking stations.

04

Connect

Approved supply is published for qualified local and international buyers.

Privacy and responsible data use

Public marketplace listings show market-ready supply, not private farmer records. Household details, contacts, finance, credit and partner disclosures remain protected through permissions, consent and audit controls.

Built for collaboration

Shamba Connect works with regulators, development organisations, financial and insurance institutions, quality-assurance organisations, technology providers and market actors to strengthen agricultural trade.
