| Henry Abraham | [email protected] | CEO | HJA Africa Ltd | Ghana | N/A | Ghana | HJA Africa Ltd, inside compound of CSIR-IIR, 81 Boundary Road, East Legon, Accra, Ghana, | http://www.hjaafrica.com | Agribusiness | N/A | HJA Africa is a 7 year old Ghanaian impact-first company that makes an innovative biostimulant agro-input called OFA, which is good for all crops. It works as a fertilizer, controls pest and fungal attacks, aids floration, and reduces the impact of drought, giving farmers fantastic value. OFA can solve the current inorganic fertilizer crisis of unaffordability, low or negative famer RoI, and unsustainability. OFA is now a leading organic input in Ghana, but as inorganics dominate there is plenty of scope for further growth. OFA can often double smallholder farm profits, and helps the environment by reducing the need for damaging inorganic fertilizers, pesticides and fungicides. HJA Africa has also just completed a successful pilot for additionally offering farm services, and we want to commercialise this new business line. HJA Africa sells OFA to farmers through more than 200 partner agro-shops across Ghana. For the last 4 years, annual sales growth has exceeded 70%, and OFA now sells to 40,000 farmers, and growing. HJA Africa is working towards exporting OFA to Ghana’s organic-loving neighbouring countries. Comparing OFA with inorganic fertilizer (the market leader),: farmer ROI is 20:1 vs <1.5:1; cost for use with an acre of cereals for a growing season is $3 vs $70 and application weights are <1kg vs 150 - 300kg. OFA is also better for soil health. Comparing OFA with conventional organic fertilizers like manures, the latter work well used close to their point of production, but otherwise at 2 tonnes or more recommended per acre (vs 0.5kg per acre for OFA), they are far more expensive to transport , and are difficult for scaling production. Revenue comes from sales of OFA, mainly through partner agro-shops, supported by our employed regional representatives, who promote OFA to both shops and farmers. OFA’s high gross margin and semi-fixed operational costs mean increasing sales will in turn rapidly increase profits. Following the company achieving breakeven in 2024, we are aiming for 15% profit in 2025. 40,000 farmers bought OFA in 2024. OFA is now a leading organic input in Ghana, has won multiple awards, and gets consistently excellent farmer feedback and media coverage. OFA delivered an estimated $20m in increased rural incomes in 2024; and big benefits for drought resilience, carbon emission mitigation and avoidance, environmental protection, and soil health. OFA’s benefits will scale with increasing sales. OFA has particular benefits for women and youth, because it puts more profitable farming within the reach of those with limited resources; and it is also targeted by NGO partners and through HJA Africa’s own CSR initiatives on smallholder women farmers and youth. The company has an office in East Legon Accra, located in the business hub of CSIR IIR who are also one of our partners. Our production facilities are in rural Ashanti region where we have access to ample supplies of our required inputs, and are centrally placed to distribute porduct across Ghana. We employ 35 staff (25% of these are women, and 50% of the management team are women), plus up to 20 occassional casual staff. OFA is fully registered with the fertilizer and pesticides regulators, MOFA (PPRSD) and EPA, and we are currently seeking an additional regulatory approval with CRIG (Cocoa Research Institute of Ghana) which will greatly increase our penetration of Ghana's biggest inputs crop, cocoa. The excellent feedback we get from cocoa farmers who are already using OFA gives us confidence the CRIG certification outcome will be positive. We are also engaging with the Ministry of Food and Agricutlure who have a major agriculture expansion programme called Feed Ghana which includes some inputs supply, the Governments 24 hour economy team (who plan to coordinate the speedy development of 2m hectares of irrigated land as agroecological parks in the new Volta Economic Corridor) , and the Tree Crops Development Authority which coordinates non-cocoa tree crop sectors in Ghana, where we will benefit from OFAs particularly large benefits for mango and cashew. Taking these together with our continuing investment in providing farmers with information on OFA to drive continued organic growth and our current work to develop exports into Burkina Faso, we believe these various opportunities will lead to at least 5 fold growth in OFA sales by the end of 2026 provided we secure enough financing to support this continued expansion with working capital, and expansions of our market and customer support, and our production facilities. This will give us annual gross revenues of around 25m cedis, with a profit of around 7m cedis. This will be the launchpad for much larger scale expansion supported by a larger funding round of $5-10m, to drive exports to Ghanas neighbours and Africawide expansion through developing partnerships with local agribusiness partners across the continent. | Low | Our key product is OFA, an organic liquid biostimulant fertilizer/pest control/fungicide providing exceptional value for money for farmers.
