Cultivating a Sustainable Tomorrow
Agriculture, supporting 60% of Africa’s livelihoods, is the continent’s economic backbone. Ndege MarketPlace champions this sector by empowering farmers through sustainable practices. From Kenya, this blockchain-powered platform facilitates the trade of sustainably produced goods—such as fresh Fruit & Veg, vibrant Flowers, Meat, Poultry & Dairy Products, aromatic Teas & Coffees, and Organic Skincare & Redolence Products—connecting innovative farmers from Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia, the Central African Republic (CAR), Rwanda, Ghana, Nigeria and more with global buyers who prioritise ethical sourcing and food security.
Our Approach:
Advancing Sustainability from Farm to Market
-
Blockchain technology tracks products from farm to buyer, verifying ethical and organic methods while reducing fraud—critical as 30% of global coffee is African-grown.
-
By eliminating intermediaries, farmers earn up to 20% more, reinvesting in sustainable techniques like agroecokogy.
-
Improved market access reduces post-harvest losses—often 30% in Africa—strengthening regional food systems.
-
It encourages adherence to certifications like Fairtrade, spotlighting farmers who reduce chemical inputs by 25% on average.
-
Sustainable farming supports diverse categories, from fresh Ugandan Fruit & Veg to Rwandan Teas & Coffees, and even Organic Skincare & Redolence Products using Ethiopian shea butter, ensuring eco-friendly practices across offerings.
