Support for agricultural SMEs

Our tool : I&P Acceleration FARM

In Côte d’Ivoire, Comoé Capital is one of I&P Accélération FARM’s implementing partners, dedicated to financing and supporting start-ups and small businesses in the agricultural sector in sub-Saharan Africa.

Deployed over a period of 3 years, I&P Acceleration FARM aims to finance and support around thirty start-ups and small and medium-sized companies operating in the agricultural value chain to reduce the food crisis.

The program covers 6 target countries (Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Kenya, Senegal and Uganda).

I&P Acceleration FARM is funded with €4 million by Proparco, a subsidiary of the Agence Française de Développement Group dedicated to the private sector.
