In the lush, fertile landscapes of Western Kenya, smallholder farmers form the backbone of rural economies. Yet, despite their critical role in food production, many still face persistent challenges—limited access to markets, unreliable pricing, lack of financial services, and outdated farming practices. At Greenwells Agriculture, we’re changing that narrative.
Our work in Western Kenya focuses on transforming traditional agriculture into a sustainable and profitable venture for local farmers. Through strategic interventions and the use of technology, we’re bridging the gap between rural producers and high-value markets.
Greenwells eliminates middlemen by connecting farmers directly to buyers. With our mobile-enabled platform, farmers can now negotiate fair prices, track their produce, and receive timely payments. This transparency boosts trust and increases farmers’ earnings.
Our network of trained village agents plays a critical role in community engagement. They facilitate Trade Transparency Services—ensuring accurate pricing, quality control, and real-time updates for both farmers and buyers.
One of the biggest setbacks for smallholders is the delay in payments. We offer trade finance solutions that ensure farmers are paid upon delivery, helping them reinvest in their farms and meet household needs without delay.
We conduct regular training sessions and demonstrations on sustainable practices—like drought-tolerant crops and integrated poultry systems—to help farmers adapt to climate variability while boosting yields.
We actively promote the inclusion of youth and women as village agents, creating employment opportunities and fostering leadership within rural communities. In Western Kenya, this model has begun to reshape gender roles and inspire innovation.
In Bungoma and Kakamega, Greenwells-supported farmers have reported up to 30% higher incomes, improved access to inputs, and increased confidence in investing in their land. Beyond economic gains, there’s a sense of pride and ownership—a renewed belief in the power of agriculture.
Greenwells Agriculture is committed to expanding its footprint across Western Kenya and beyond. By strengthening agricultural value chains and empowering local communities, we aim to build a future where smallholder farmers are not just producers—but entrepreneurs, innovators, and change-makers.
Greenwells Agriculture connects smallholder farmers to markets using tech, boosting incomes, traceability, and rural job creation.
