South African agri-tech startup Nile has raised ZAR200 million (US$11.3 million) in funding to accelerate its growth across Southern Africa.

Founded in 2021 by Louis de Kock, Eugene Roodt and Rick Kleynhans, Nile provides farmers with digital solutions that can address various pain points inherent to food trading – including price transparency, quality verification, speed of payments, the traceability of the produce and food waste.
