Decentralised Rural Hubs Powering Last-Mile Agriculture.
At FarmHive, we’re building a smarter agricultural future by transforming rural retail shops into fully equipped storage and service hubs. These decentralized centers serve as local engines for input distribution, post-harvest storage, produce aggregation, and market fulfilment—connecting smallholder farmers to buyers, credit, and supply chains like never before.
Powered by real-time data and supply chain technology, our hubs bring visibility and reliability to the most remote corners of Zambia’s agriculture sector—unlocking productivity, reducing loss, and driving inclusive rural economies.
Inefficient Value Chains
Zambia’s agricultural value chains are burdened by weak last-mile infrastructure, limited on-farm storage, and fragmented market linkages—resulting in significant inefficiencies across the system.
– Each year, an estimated 40% of food produced is lost after harvest, undermining national food security and farmer incomes.
– Due to the absence of reliable data records, 84% of smallholder farmers remain excluded from formal financial services and credit systems.
Why use FarmHive
We collect, map, and monetise Farmer records to close the distribution gap, improve financial offerings and design inclusive agronomy training for rural Zambia through a network of agents.
