Founded in 2015, Akorion Company Limited (Ezy Agric) has developed a robust and scalable product providing a data-driven and end to end solution to the major challenges of farmers and agribusinesses. Through its different platforms, portals and applications, the company has developed a gateway to 300,000 users in Uganda (June 2021) and has over 14,000 active users in the past 12 months.

The company has experienced a consistent 7X annual growth for the past 2 financial years. The underlying data generated provides immense potential for personalized farming insights to enable further business and product development for both farmers and agribusinesses.

Ezy Agric was founded with an intent to address a significant challenge that requires a solution simply from the perspective of a growing population & food security because the existing ecosystem is extremely inefficient and therefore gives rise to immense improvement potential. The Agri-SME sits at the intersection between ICT and agriculture and allows continued supply chain activities even in heavily restricted situations to increase yields and improve income as well as for supply chain to be able to make a decent living in both urban and rural areas.

It is actively involved in the achievement of various sustainable goals through providing opportunities for decent income for farmers and allows multiple streams of income for farmers based in urban areas to enable a sustainable production of local food through improved yields while reducing food losses along production and supply chains, including post-harvest losses.

The enterprise joined the Women in Agriculture Impact Investment (WAII) Facility in 2022 when the call for applications was rolled out. It is among the 18 Agri-SMEs that were selected for the first investment advisory cycle. Finding XY established the Women in Agriculture Impact Investment (WAII) Facility to accelerate early growth stage of SMEs investment using a blend of instruments and a gender lens approach through bridge financing cover and loan-discount approach using Covid relief investment support.

WAII is made possible by the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under the Feed the Future Uganda Inclusive Agricultural Markets Activity and is implemented by Finding XY.
