How Albert Diouf Helps Senegal's Farmers Increase Their Income with Agri-Foodtech Startup AfrikaMart

In this episode, meet Albert Diouf, the founder of AfrikaMart, an Agri-Foodtech Startup in Senegal, that is working on efficient ways to aggregate and move local produce all the while ensuring a significantly higher payoff for the smallholder farmers, supplying fresh local quality products to supermarkets in urban areas and using an integrated supply chain system to keep the system in flow.

In the interview Albert shares how

  • How much of an impact the AfrikaMart model can have on farmers
  • What some of their biggest challenges are
