In Sub-Saharan Africa, agri-input distributors are at the forefront of driving food security and rural development. But scaling these operations is no easy task. Manual processes, fragmented supply chains, and disconnected field teams are holding businesses back. Pen and paper can’t keep up with the realities of scale — and that’s where smart digital tools come in.
Why Digitization Matters Now
According to McKinsey, over 400+ digital agriculture tools have been developed in the last few years, yet most fail to scale. Why? Because they often overlook the on-the-ground challenges that distributors face — unreliable connectivity, mobile teams, and complex rural logistics.
Agri businesses don’t need flashy dashboards. They need tools that function in the field, in real time, and in low-bandwidth environments.
Whats Slowing Distributors Down?
- Manual Stock Tracking: without proper tools, businesses face delays, lost stock, and missed sales opportunities.
- Disconnected Field Teams: field agents operate in silos with no visibility from HQ — leading to poor accountability and inefficiencies.
- Lack of Real-Time Insights: without immediate data, planning becomes reactive and scaling becomes harder.
