Who we are
The proof that African produce can be graded, preserved, and traded.
AfriChill is the first Amazon FBA-style agricultural fulfilment platform for Africa.
AfriChill is the first integrated cold-chain operating system that combines preservation, fulfilment, traceability, quality evidence, and export readiness for African perishables and proteins.
With real-time IoT telemetry, GPS chain-of-custody, B-Score grading, Smart Markets and export-ready Digital Product Passports, every batch can move from source to shelf, visible proof of quality, condition and custody.
What we do
We help farmers sell better, buyers source smarter and institutions build more transparent resilient and bankable trade.
One network. From farmgate to shelf.
AfriChill turns fragmented agricultural supply into verified, preserved and trade-ready inventory. From farmgate to buyer, every batch can be monitored through a Digital Product Passport showing its quality, temperature history, location, custody events and compliance readiness.
Our USP
Storage keeps produce alive. AfriChill makes it tradeable.
We connect the physical infrastructure that preserves produce with the digital infrastructure that proves its value.
The problem
Africa loses ₦3.5B annually to post-harvest loss.
African agriculture does not only need more production, it needs better preservation, quality assurance and market access.
Why it matters
African produce is often unpreserved, undervalued and distress-sold.
AfriChill changes that by making harvests preservable, verifiable and trade-ready.
Farmers earn more from reduced losses and better market access.
Buyers source with confidence.
Exporters prepare cleaner trade files.
Banks and insurers gain better data.
Public institutions see stronger food security, jobs, SME growth and structured trade.
The solution
Physical infrastructure protects the product; digital infrastructure proves its value.
AfriChill handles everything after harvest; storage, grading, movement, tracking, fulfilment and trade readiness.
Infrastructure that creates operators
Lease-to-buy financing
AfriChill is not only moving produce. It is building a new layer of ownership for and empowerment cold-chain operators, drivers, aggregators, packhouse teams, fulfilment agents and digital trade coordinators,
Through buy-to-lease financing and platform-enabled routes, AfriChill helps SMEs access cold-chain assets, serve demand and earn from agricultural fulfilment.

Our Undeniable Impact
Built to make farmers/aggregators earn more
Your harvest deserves a better market.
You shouldn’t have to choose between selling too early and watching your produce rot. Today, many smallholder farmers sell under pressure because produce begins losing value the moment it is harvested. AfriChill is designed to make the farmer’s harvest more valuable.
With AfriChill, you place your produce into a network that handles everything after harvest:
“Harvest it. We handle the rest. No upfront costs. Pay only after your produce is sold.”
- ✓No upfront costs: pay only after your produce is sold
- ✓Extend shelf life: store for weeks, sell when prices are higher
- ✓Access premium buyers: reach QSRs, supermarkets, and export markets
- ✓Get paid more: 30-50% income uplift verified across our network
- ✓Full transparency: track your inventory in real time
- ✓Receive faster settlement and build a verifiable commercial record from every batch.
For SMEs and operators
AfriChill creates opportunities beyond the farm.
Through buy-to-lease financing and platform-enabled routes, cold-chain operators, drivers, aggregators, packhouse workers and fulfilment partners can access assets, serve demand and earn from Africa’s growing food logistics economy.
- ✓No upfront costs: pay only after your produce is sold. AfriChill handles everything after harvest, removing the barrier of upfront investment.
- ✓Extend shelf life: store produce for weeks and sell when market prices are higher, capturing 30-50% income uplift verified across our network
- ✓Full traceability: track your inventory in real time via the AfriChill OS dashboard. Know exactly what you have, where it is, and what condition it's in.
- ✓Lease-to-own options: access cold storage infrastructure and fleet through flexible financing models, using stored produce as collateral, without the capital expenditure burden.

Government / institutional partnerships
₦3.5 trillion lost. We’re recovering it.
AfriChill gives public institutions visibility into post-harvest loss, cold-chain movement, farmer participation, inventory flows, market access and structured trade readiness.
- ✓Zero government CAPEX: private-sector-led infrastructure that delivers public goods without straining public finances
- ✓Post-harvest loss reduction: from 45-55% to under 10% on connected corridors. This is a measurable political win.
- ✓Gender & youth inclusion: women-led; targets women farmers, aggregators, and operators. Aligns with gender and youth empowerment priorities.
- ✓Price stability: smoothed supply across seasons reduces food price volatility. Farmers sell when prices are higher; markets don't flood at harvest.
It helps transform informal perishables into traceable, data-backed inventory that can support food security, jobs, SME growth, exports and farmer income.
