aBi’s Background: The Agricultural Business Initiative (aBi) was jointly founded by the Governments of Denmark & Uganda in 2010 as a social enterprise that channels development cooperation funding to agribusinesses & agricultural service providers. aBi aims at building a competitive, profitable & sustainable agriculture and agribusiness sector in support of equitable wealth creation in Uganda. The aBi consists of two companies; aBi Finance Ltd a company limited by shares and aBi Development Ltd (formerly aBi Trust) limited by guarantee.
aBi Finance Ltd is an impact investor providing sustainable financing solutions in Uganda’s financial services sector. Its mission revolves around enabling access to agribusiness and green finance, achieved through three key strategies: offering competitively priced liquidity through lines of credit (LoC), mitigating agribusiness finance risks using the agribusiness guarantee (AG), and bolstering the capabilities of financial services providers through Financial Services Development (FSD) and Business Development Services (BDS).
aBi Development Ltd focuses on increasing agricultural production & value addition by extending matching grants & Business Development Services (BDS) to agribusinesses, farmer organisations & intermediaries to enhance planning & management, production & business infrastructure, as well as upstream & downstream market linkages of producers & agribusinesses.
As part of its expanded programming, aBi Development is implementing the “Empowering Young Women Entrepreneurs in Agriculture stimulated by Coffee (EYE-C)” program which aims to alleviate poverty by creating work opportunities for young women aged 18 to 35 in Uganda’s coffee value chain (CVC). The Program is implemented by a consortium led by aBi Development in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, other Consortium Partners including Café Africa Uganda, and International Women in Coffee Alliance (IWCA) Uganda Chapter. Through this approach, EYE-C aligns with national priorities and the Mastercard Foundation’s Young Africa Works strategy, which seeks to enable 30 million young people access dignified and fulfilling work across Africa by 2030.
