Avenews provide short-term recurring working capital to increase the purchasing capacity of agribusinesses. Here’s a summary of what you should know about the Avenews loan: It's for buying products or inputs - The funds are dedicated to buying only produce (e.g. fruits, vegetables, cereals, dairy, livestock, herbs, spices, materials for animal feeds, etc.) or inputs (seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, processed animal feeds, etc.), according to your business needs. It's for trade transactions - We provide financing specifically for purchasing stock that is going to be sold in your upcoming trade cycle. It's short-term - The term from the moment you buy stock to the moment you get paid for selling is typically no longer than 1 month. It's recurring - You get financing from Avenews to buy stock > You buy the stock, sell it, and get paid for it > You repay the loan on the repayment date > You get your next round of financing and so it goes until the agreement is ended. The fee is determined per the unique characteristics of each credit client and the trade cycle that Avenews is being asked to fund. Once a loan is activated, the funds can be accessed via a dedicated wallet in the Avenews app from which you can make payments to buy the products you have requested financing for.

Avenews supports formal small and medium-sized agribusinesses, such as traders, exporters, suppliers, aggregators, processors, millers, agrovets, etc. Currently, we do not finance farmers, informal businesses, and other businesses outside the agricultural sector.

If your business is registered in Kenya, is a trader, aggregator, or processor of agricultural products, and is seeking financing to expand its operations, you may be eligible for an Avenews loan! Check if you are eligible here.

Avenews provides short-term loans specifically tailored to meet the unique needs of agribusinesses. Unlike traditional bank loans, which often require lengthy approval processes and complex interest models, Avenews' loans are based on the nature of your business transactions. We have the ability to finance recurring Agri-business transactions or deals of agricultural products and inputs. We use your business performance data to qualify you for a loan and once approved, you can access funds within minutes. With Avenews, the application process is easy and very simplified. All you need is to avail your business information & data - the faster you share it, the faster we'll be able to process your request. If you'll be fast, we'll keep up with your pace so you don't have to wait weeks for loan approval, and you can receive funds much faster than traditional bank loans. Avenews' loans are also recurring, which means that once you pay back your loan, you can instantly access the same loan amount again to purchase more stock. This allows you to grow your business more quickly and efficiently, without having to constantly reapply for a new loan. We also provide additional services, such as financial advice, payment processing, and business management tools, to help our clients grow their businesses.
