Company Description
Root Capital supports agricultural enterprises so that they can build more prosperous, inclusive and resilient rural communities. We expand access to finance by providing capital investment for enterprises whose credit needs are too big for microfinance and too risky for commercial banks. We pair this credit with customized training in financial management, governance, agronomic capacity, and more.
To date, we’ve distributed $1.85 billion to improve the lives of over 10 million people in farming families. In partnership with agricultural enterprises, we increase rural livelihoods, create jobs for young people, level the playing field for women, and help farmers adapt to climate change in some of the world’s most vulnerable ecosystems.
