AgDevCo Ventures is a specialist investment vehicle established by AgDevCo to provide patient finance and technical assistance to early-stage agribusinesses in East Africa.  

Small Foundation is supporting AgDevCo Ventures to provide patient finance and technical assistance to early-stage agribusinesses across the region.  

AgDevCo Ventures combines flexible debt with equity participation and structured technical assistance. Its model is designed for businesses that have begun generating revenue but remain too early, small or exposed to agricultural risk to access conventional commercial or development finance. The vehicle is managed by a dedicated team based in Nairobi, supported by AgDevCo’s wider investment, agriculture, ESG and impact capabilities.
