The Machakos Story

Harvest at dawn.
Sell by noon.
Or lose everything.

The Reality

In Machakos County, mango farmers were trapped in a cycle they could not escape.

Spoilage starts immediately

Once mangoes are harvested, the countdown begins. Without cold storage, quality drops within hours. Farmers have no time to wait for better prices.

Middlemen know the clock

Buyers arrive at the farm gate knowing the farmer has no choice. The shorter the shelf life, the lower the price they offer.

Forced to sell early

Farmers must offload their harvest immediately, often before the fruit is fully ripe, at prices dictated by the buyer, not the market.

The cycle repeats

Low prices mean no money to invest. No investment means no improvement. The harvest never pays what it should.

Everype for Smallholders

Test more time after harvest.
Turn urgency into negotiation.

Everype pilots are designed to test whether farmers can gain more time, reach better buyers, and reduce pressure to sell immediately after harvest.

The shift

Sell when the market needs you.

01
Harvest on your schedule

Pick at peak ripeness. Apply Everype. The clock slows down.

Farmer Pilot Questions

Does more time translate to better income?

Track actual buyer offers, transport options, spoilage, and application cost.
