About Agricolafrique
A House of World Standard Veterinary Products & Certified Seeds and Seasoning, rooted in West Africa
Rooted Here
Rooted in West Africa. Built for West African Farmers.
Agricolafrique was established in Lagos, Nigeria in 2020 with a singular focus: to close the quality gap in certified seed and veterinary biologicals that had long disadvantaged West African farmers relative to their counterparts globally.
We are not a generalist agricultural company. We are a specialist house — anchored in two of the most regulated, most consequential input categories in agriculture. Certified seed, because the genetic potential of a crop is fixed at planting and cannot be recovered thereafter. Veterinary biologicals, because disease prevention in livestock is always less costly — economically and humanly — than treatment or loss.
Operating across the ECOWAS sub-region from our headquarters in Lagos, with hubs in Accra, Abidjan and Dakar, Agricolafrique has placed registered seed and biologicals into the hands of over 50,000 farmers and livestock keepers in 12 countries — and is growing.
What Six Years in West Africa Looks Like
Every figure represents a farmer who planted a certified variety, an animal that received a potent vaccine, a livelihood protected against preventable loss.
