AgriCash Secures Seed Funding to Scale AI-Powered Agri-Finance in Egypt
The newly raised capital will support AgriCash in expanding its footprint within Egypt, tapping into new regional markets, and further developing its digital and AI-driven infrastructure.
Egyptian agri-fintech startup AgriCash has successfully closed a seed funding round led by Alex Angels, with backing from a group of strategic investors. While the company has not revealed the exact investment amount, the funding marks a significant step in scaling its impact across Egypt and beyond.
The newly raised capital will support AgriCash in expanding its footprint within Egypt, tapping into new regional markets, and further developing its digital and AI-driven infrastructure. The startup also plans to finalize integrations with key financial and insurance partners to broaden its ecosystem offerings.
AgriCash’s mission centers on transforming Egypt’s agricultural sector through digital innovation and improving financial inclusion for underserved small and medium-scale farmers. Its platform provides more than just financing—it also offers AI-powered agronomic insights, zero-cost crop insurance, and digital tools to help farmers access local and global markets.
So far, the company has onboarded over 1,500 active farmers, established partnerships with 60 certified suppliers, and listed 750+ agricultural products on its platform. Additionally, AgriCash has reached more than 100,000 offline farmers through rural outreach and awareness campaigns aimed at building trust and boosting digital adoption in farming communities.
Looking ahead, AgriCash is targeting EGP 500 million in business volume by the end of 2025. It also plans to introduce livestock financing solutions in 2026, with the goal of creating an end-to-end agri-finance ecosystem that interlinks credit, insurance, technical support, and marketing services.
Founded by Dr. Diaa Youssef and Dr. Mostafa El-Sehli, AgriCash was launched to address the persistent financing challenges faced by Egyptian farmers, many of whom are underserved by traditional banks due to complex loan procedures and a lack of Sharia-compliant financial products.
Among its standout innovations is a Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) model customized for the agricultural sector. This solution offers farmers interest-free access to agricultural, and livestock supplies for up to 12 months, with credit limits reaching EGP 3 million.
With this fresh injection of capital, AgriCash is poised to continue building a resilient, inclusive, and tech-enabled agricultural finance network that enhances productivity and sustainability across Egypt’s farming landscape.
