Farm to Feed, a Kenyan agri-tech startup, has received an undisclosed sum of funding from Renew Capital to assist it in scaling up its operations.
Farm to Feed has established a business-to-business platform that connects leftover products with new purposes.
Farm to Feed was founded in 2020 to minimize food waste by gathering and developing a new market for imperfect or excess products.
The tech-enabled platform of the firm optimizes logistics, collects supply and demand, and facilitates smooth client engagement.
“Our goal at Farm to Feed is to transform the way food is valued and utilized in Kenya. We’re dedicated to reducing the environmental footprint of agriculture, boosting farmer incomes, and making nutritious food more accessible and affordable for all,” said Claire van Enk, managing director of Farm to Feed.
Renew Capital is a pan-African investment firm that was founded in 2012 by Matt and Laura Davis. It manages investments for a global network of HNIs, foundations, and family offices that are looking for both long-term financial returns and positive social impact.
“Farm to Feed embodies the kind of innovative spirit and determination we value at Renew Capital,” said Esther Mwikali, Renew Capital’s investment and project manager for Kenya. “We’re committed to backing growth-oriented founders who possess a blend of skill, grit, and passion. Farm to Feed’s work in transforming Kenya’s food system aligns perfectly with these values.”
