Kepya is also an application that allows the inclusion of four players - farmers, aggregators, buyers and transporters – with the aim of quickly responding to each other's needs and conducting secure transactions in real time.
Membership in the Kepya application is currently free and free, as the company only monetizes on subsequent transaction fees. With this innovative solution in our country, the startup also aims to provide privileged information on this market, which captures different agents in the agribusiness area.
BUT: Kepya uses the internet to facilitate the marketing of field products in Angola
Kepya is more than a market, where it comes to be an ecosystem through which small farmers are able to interact with the market, accessing products and services that allow them to better carry out their activity, and where they can sell their production in a reliable environment. .
Through the installation of small warehouses (CSAs) in rural areas that are managed from an application integrated into a system linked to different partners, it is possible to connect small farmers, often excluded from information, to the national market, allowing their needs to be met and their products are marketed
Please note that the GoGettaz Agripreneur is an award that aims to support food entrepreneurs who are struggling to transform Africa's food system. Startups in its program benefit from education, mentoring and investment networking to help them launch, grow or boost their agri-food venture.
