About Us

Our Mission: UMUHUZA is a revolutionary web and mobile application that bridges the gap in Rwanda's food chain. We empower farmers with vital information, connect them to essential players like agro-dealers and processors, and create a more efficient and transparent market system.

Why we exist: Rwanda's agricultural sector is fragmented, leading to information asymmetry and unreliable access to markets. Farmers struggle to get fair prices, while consumers and businesses face challenges finding consistent, high-quality produce.

The good news: UMUHUZA's user-friendly web and mobile app provides farmers with:

  1. Information access: Best practices, weather forecasts, and market data.
  2. Market access: Connect directly with agro-dealers, processors, and consumers.
  3. Improved pricing: Gain market transparency and fairer deals for their crops.

Testimonial

UMUHUZA is a game-changer for processors! The platform connects us to farmers/cooperatives who have the products that we want (in our case Maize ) and we can negotiate beforehand. This has eased our pain to work with middlemen!

- Fred Mugisha, from MINIMEX

As an agro-dealer, I have never felt relaxed. Since UMUHUZA came to us, we have no problem getting clients. They register, and I can see who has ordered what on time, and I can procure enough stock that farmers will consume with no extra. It is easy and simple. Thank you, Ikiraro!

- James Rutanga, Kirehe Agrodealer

UMUHUZA is a game-changer for farmers in Nyamagabe! This platform connects us to the nearest agro-dealer to get inputs such as seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides, extension services, and weather forecasts. It's incredibly user-friendly and has boosted our productivity immensely. Thank you, UMUHUZA! We love you.
