The app will offer distributors the possibility of efficiently managing capital, of accessing new products and expanding their businesses.
“The app will facilitate the rapid acquisition of agricultural inputs, thus eliminating the need for cash or banking loans. Distributors will also have access to a new distribution channel as they will be able to sell their products directly via the platform, with flexible payment options. Thus, Tarfin helps boost the efficiency of the farming sector and increase retailers’ competitiveness,” according to Tarfin representatives.
During 2023, the company posted fast growth of over 35%, posting sales of 85,000 tons of agricultural inputs both in Turkey and Romania. Also, sales had a positive impact over the productivity of farmers in over 5,600 villages.
With 62,000 farmers and over 1,900 farming distributors, Tarfin plans to expand its national network of partners and distributors in 2024 to democratize farmers’ access to funding.
“This year we plan to boost the distributor portfolio by 15% to be able to support farmers even more, via durable partnerships,” said Adina China-Birta, general manager of Tafin Romania.
At the same time, Tarfin is working to develop a solution to directly tackle farmers’ current problems. Thus, Tarfin Mobile will envisage the implementation of instant funding solutions and facilitate distributor price comparisons.
