Komaza

Komaza is revolutionizing African forestry by unlocking the potential for small-scale farmers to serve booming wood markets. By combining high-scale operations with digital intelligence, we are currently planting commercial-grade forests at a rate of over 1 million trees with 5,000+ new farmers per year, making us Kenya’s largest industrial tree planter. We hold the only sustainable blueprint for meeting Africa’s $30B wood supply crisis - by leveraging farmers’ contribution of land and labor, Komaza can access nearly limitless land and establish a hectare of trees for far less than big plantations. We recently raised a $28M Series B from top venture and climate investors and have rapidly grown to become one of Africa's top 5 commercial tree planters, producing one of the world's cheapest and most scalable carbon sequestration engines on the planet. We're supported by top environmental organizations including Conservation International and The Nature Conservancy.
