Africa can – and must – help cover our world's growing food needs. We invest in farmers and dare them to dream big.
Emata is revolutionising the way smallholder farmers in Africa access financing. Our loans are specifically designed to empower farmers to invest in their farms and increase their revenue.
We make this possible by utilising end-to-end digital processes, AI-powered alternative credit-scoring and partnerships with agricultural intermediaries like cooperatives and aggregators.
Emata is a licensed Microfinance Institution. Visit us at our offices in Kampala and Mbarara for a coffee!
