Complete Farmer, a Ghana-based agritech company Raises $2.5 Million

Ghana-based agritech company Complete Farmer has secured approximately €2.2 million (equivalent to around $2.5 million) from the European Union–funded AgriFI initiative, administered through the EDFI Management Company. The funding will support the construction of six rural fulfillment centers across five northern regions of Ghana, designed to improve aggregation, quality control, and logistics for smallholder farms. 

Founded in 2017 by entrepreneur Desmond Koney, Complete Farmer operates a digital agricultural marketplace with two core offerings: CF Grower, which equips smallholder producers with data‑driven cultivation protocols and links them to input suppliers; and CF Buyer, which connects international commodity buyers to traceable, export‑ready crops.

The newly backed expansion aligns with AgriFI Ghana Country Window objectives aimed at inclusive rural growth. By improving infrastructure in underserved areas, the company expects to benefit over 5,000 smallholder farmers in the short term, while its long-term ambition is to serve 50,000 farmers by 2028.

EU Ambassador to Ghana, Irchad Razaaly, said the investment goes beyond backing a single startup—it supports entire farming communities by enabling easier access to quality inputs, agronomic support, and reliable market linkages. The result, he added, is smoother operations, improved yields, and higher incomes for farmers in northern Ghana.

Rodrigo Madrazo García de Lomana, CEO of EDFI Management Company, noted that this investment reinforces the organisation’s mission to foster sustainable agricultural value chains. The planned fulfillment hubs will strengthen supply linkages and deliver tangible benefits across grower and buyer segments.

Complete Farmer’s hybrid model—combining physical infrastructure with digital tools—sets it apart from many agritech platforms. Rather than focusing solely on software, the company is investing in on-the-ground logistics infrastructure that bridges gaps in storage, quality control, and post-harvest management.

This investment builds on Complete Farmer’s existing momentum: in 2023 it raised a $10.4 million pre-Series A funding round to deepen operations, expand its platform across West Africa, and introduce embedded finance features. While that capital established the foundation, the EU-backed facility enables deeper, rural expansion in northern Ghana.

With this latest investment, Complete Farmer is poised to transform agricultural systems at scale—unlocking market access, reducing post-harvest losses, and enabling long-sought economic inclusion in one of Ghana’s most underserved regions.

Complete Farmer is now building on its technology‑enabled platform with rural infrastructure that directly benefits smallholder communities—bringing market linkages, seed and input access, and quality control closer to the farm gate.
