Cubeseed Digitises Livestock Value Chain to Improve Agribusiness

Agritech startup Cubeseed says it is using digital technology to address long-standing challenges in Nigeria’s livestock sector and improve the ease of doing business across the value chain.

Speaking at the company’s pilot launch in Lagos, the founders said the platform is designed to connect farmers, buyers, processors and financial institutions in a more structured and reliable system. They noted that poor coordination and delayed payments have continued to affect livestock businesses and food security.

Cubeseed said it already has more than 4,000 farmers on its database and is working with partners, including Sterling Bank, to provide financing and improve market access. The company also revealed that an earlier test version generated 27 million naira in orders within one week.

Industry stakeholders, including the Poultry Association of Nigeria and commercial processors, said the platform could help reduce supply gaps, improve market coordination and support growth in the livestock industry.
