The African Fertilizer and Agribusiness Partnership’s (AFAP) extensive experience in fertilizer financing comes from managing our own activities (in-house trade credit guarantee fund) and from working with clients in designing and implementing a wide range of finance programs. Having begun both trade credit guarantee and grant programs in 2013 to facilitate more cost effective access to fertilizer by small holder farmers and to provide asset finance to hub agro-dealers, we have multi-year expertise in numerous jurisdictions in providing financial support in the inputs sector. This operational advantage makes us uniquely equipped to understand the realities that exist in each geography and bring a practical approach to successfully achieving our clients’ objectives.
