Co-operative Bank is reaching out to Kenya’s farmers in a big way.
At a recent agribusiness forum hosted in collaboration with Kingdom Bank, the bank brought together hundreds of farmers, agro-dealers, and agriculture experts.
The goal was simple: support farmers with the tools, financing, and knowledge they need to grow their businesses.
Here’s what happened:
Farmers got direct access to expert advice on climate-resilient farming.
Agro-dealers showcased sustainable input options and technologies.
Co-op Bank introduced agribusiness loans tailored for smallholder farmers.
Digital tools were shared to help farmers manage finances and access markets.
The message was clear—farming is business, and Co-op Bank is ready to walk the journey with farmers.
Many farmers who attended praised the bank for stepping in when others have ignored rural agriculture.
One smallholder farmer from Kirinyaga said:
“Before this, I didn’t know how to get capital to expand. Now I know what to do and who to approach.”
The bank is positioning itself not just as a lender but as a trusted partner in improving food security.
By linking financing with knowledge and market access, Co-op Bank is helping farmers earn more and feed more.
In a time when global food systems are under pressure, supporting local agriculture is not just good business—it’s a national need.
Are you a farmer looking to expand? This may be your moment to grow.
