FarmWorks is a horticulture company in Kenya. Its hub and spoke model leverages clusters of mid-sized, leased commercial farms to provide smallholder farmers with access to intensive agronomy training, quality and cost-effective farm inputs, and direct access to markets. The company enhances the resilience of farmers by addressing their key pain points, including lack of sufficient agriculture expertise, a dearth of affordable and quality inputs and machinery, and high post-harvest losses.
