Oyster Agribusiness, an agri-tech company specialising in climate-smart agriculture, has raised $2 million in funding to expand its operations and deepen its impact on smallholder farmers across Ghana.<\/p>\n
This milestone was made possible through the support of Root Capital, RDF Ghana, and Sahel Capital Social Enterprise Fund for Agriculture in Africa (SEFAA FUND), with the fundraising process led by Pangea Africa Limited.<\/p>\n
Over the last five years, Oyster Agribusiness has played a pivotal role in transforming the livelihoods of smallholder farmers and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.<\/p>\n
The company has among others paid over GH\u00a260 million to smallholder farmers, positively impacted the lives of 4,500 smallholder farmers,\u00a0 cultivated over 20,000 acres of farm land and\u00a0 supplied over 25,000 tonnes of agricultural produce to markets locally and internationally.<\/p>\n
This fresh capital injection will allow Oyster Agribusiness to expand its operations, reach more farmers, and scale its climate-smart agricultural initiatives, further strengthening the resilience of Ghana\u2019s agricultural sector in the face of climate challenges.<\/p>\n
CEO of Oyster Agribuinsess, Edmond Kombat, said, \u201cThis investment is a testament to the impact we\u2019ve made with smallholder farmers and the tremendous potential we see in scaling our operations. Together, we are working toward a more sustainable, inclusive, and resilient agricultural ecosystem in Ghana.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pangea Africa Limited played a crucial role in structuring and guiding the fundraising process, ensuring that Oyster Agribusiness attracted the right partners to scale its operations while maintaining its focus on environmental sustainability and empowering smallholder farmers.<\/p>\n
\u201cOyster is a prime example of a growing African agribusiness generating triple bottom-line impact. Under the dynamic leadership of Mr. Edmond Kombat, Oyster is achieving impressive profits while delivering measurable social and environmental benefits, particularly for Ghanaian farmers. They serve as a shining example of leadership to their West African agribusiness counterparts,\u201d Partner, Pangea Africa Ltd Nii Lokko said.<\/p>\n
