Karidas Tshintsholo (Khula): Fixing Africa’s Agriculture Supply Chain

In this episode, we’re humbled to sit down with Karidas Tshintsholo, CEO and Co-Founder of Khula!, the pioneering agritech startup dedicated to empowering smallholder farmers through access to markets and financing. Founded in 2016, the business now enables the trade of thousands of products from hundreds of local & international suppliers on its platform and is changing the face of the agri-supply chain for good. Khula is a graduate of the Google for Startups accelerator, a past winner of the MTN Business App of the Year and has raised considerable investment from the likes of PepsiCo, AECI and E Squared Investments. But, for the companies’ founder and CEO, the Khula story is one of immense resilience, fuelled by a passion to create sustainable solutions for underserved markets. We talk about: Karidas’s humble upbringing and entrepreneurship as survival. Dropping out of university to become a full-time founder. Identifying opportunities by deep-diving the problem. Understanding the country’s agri-supply chain inefficiencies. Solving for one of the continent’s largest opportunities and convincing the right stakeholders to come along for the ride. - The Startup Club Podcast dives into the stories of South Africa's leading tech startup founders and investors, their journeys of innovation, failure, resilience, and triumph and is a branch of Startup Club ZA - the country’s fastest-growing tech startup community.
