Founded in 2014, Agri Frontier is a leading African agri sector advisory firm specialized in supporting the sustainable growth and development of the agribusiness sector across the value chain.
Agri Frontier has grown and expanded its range of services to include Agri SME capacity building acceleration (Agri Frontier Growth HUB) and now leveraging its experience and expertise to launch the Agri Frontier Growth Fund. The fund will support growth stage Agri SMEs across East & West Africa with an impact focus including climate adaptation and gender equity.
The fund seeks to raise $80m with a blended structure of first loss junior equity, senior equity, and debt, investing in over 50 Agri SMEs. The fund will be supported by a technical assistance facility. Targeted investors include DFI’s, impact focused fund of funds, foundations, family offices and other private investors.
Agri Frontier has developed its own high level fund financial model with well-developed assumptions aligning with the funds investment strategy and capital structure. However, the model now requires enhancements to its design and structure to extend its functionality or preferably, to be replaced with a best practise model.
Interested service providers are encouraged to engage with the Agri Frontier team before submission. Access to the working model for the purposes of providing a comprehensive proposal will be granted upon the execution of a non-disclosure agreement.
For full details about the engagement, including scope of services and proposal submission guidelines, please download the full RFP below.
Interested service providers shall submit their proposal, including a capped or fixed fee and timelines, in writing to programme@icfa.lu, copying Andrew Ritchie: aritchie@agrifrontier.com by 21/02/2025.
