About
Apollo Agriculture is a Nairobi-based technology company that helps small-scale farmers in Kenya and Zambia move from subsistence to commercial farming. Farmers can buy seed and other inputs in cash or on credit, with instant credit decisions from Apollo's machine-learning models, then pick up products at a network of more than 1,000 local agrodealers. The company also provides agronomic training and insurance for credit customers. Founded in 2016 by Eli Pollak, Benjamin Njenga, and Earl St Sauver, Apollo says its farmers typically produce about 2.5 times more than the average Kenyan farmer.
