Grow For Me, an agritech company co-founded by Nana Prempeh and his colleagues, is making waves in Ghana’s agricultural ecosystem by delivering a powerful combination of technology, climate resilience, and market access to smallholder farmers.
With a model that blends input and commodity financing, aggregation, and digital trading, Grow For Me has empowered over 19,000 farmers across Ghana. The start-up provides access to essential services while advancing regenerative agriculture and carbon offset practices.
As a Kosmos Innovation Centre (KIC) Incubated Business, Grow For Me is supported by KIC, in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, having joined the KIC Incubation Program in 2022.
“Our goal is to make farming more accessible, profitable, and sustainable—for the farmer, the investor, and the planet,” says Nana Prempeh, Co-founder of Grow For Me.
At its core, Grow For Me offers a technology-driven platform that enables smallholder farmers to access inputs and financing, while also linking them to a ready market for their harvest. Through its aggregation model, the company enhances farmer productivity and guarantees consistent quality for buyers and investors.
Farmers are also trained in regenerative agriculture, which restores soil health and improves yields over time, and climate-resilient practices that reduce vulnerability to extreme weather events.
“This approach not only democratizes access to agriculture, but channels funds into impactful, measurable results on the ground,” Nana Prempeh added.
Executive Director of the Kosmos Innovation Center Benjamin Gyan-Kesse, commended the startup’s growth, “Grow For Me represents the transformative power of agritech, how innovation can improve livelihoods, regenerate the environment, and create investment opportunities. KIC is proud to have supported Nana and his team on their journey to building one of Ghana’s most impactful climate-smart agribusinesses.”
Grow For Me is one of several youth-led, impact-focused startups supported by the KIC Business Incubation Program. Through funding, mentorship, and investor exposure, KIC empowers startups to solve pressing agricultural challenges with innovative, scalable models.
