Twiga Foods

Twiga Foods is a game-changing startup that is revolutionizing the African retail industry. Since its establishment in 2013, the company has been committed to becoming Africa’s largest grocer. Twiga leverages a mobile-based, cashless, business-to-business (B2B) supply platform to penetrate the distribution networks of millions of small and medium-sized vendors in African urban markets. With a focus on lowering their daily costs of goods, Twiga aims to capitalize on the untapped potential within broken, informal value-chains and wholesale providers. Nairobi alone boasts at least 18,000 small and medium-sized vendors purchasing $55 worth of stock daily, positioning Twiga to emerge as their primary source of supply. The company's future plans involve expanding its platform to five African markets. A significant milestone for Twiga was the $35.00M Debt Financing investment secured on 18 December 2023, with participation from Creadev and Juven. The startup operates at the intersection of agriculture, e-commerce, and retail, presenting enormous growth potential within an evolving market landscape.
