Where African soil meets Thai flavour. The ingredients that define Thai cuisine grow abundantly across East Africa — and Matoke connects both worlds.
Bird's eye chillies, lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime, turmeric, coriander, tamarind — the building blocks of Thai cuisine are thriving in African soil. Uganda, Kenya, and Ghana already produce world-class volumes of these ingredients at a fraction of Asian market prices.
Matoke creates the direct bridge: verified African growers supply Thai-cuisine ingredients to restaurants, food manufacturers, and home cooks across Africa, the Middle East, and Europe — in their local currency, with mobile money payouts.
Restaurant owners, food manufacturers, and importers: buy certified bird's eye chilli, lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, turmeric, and tamarind directly from Matoke's verified African growers. Lower cost. Full traceability. Mobile-money settled. Export-packaged to your specification.
Africa's finest natural ingredients — shea butter, baobab oil, moringa, black soap — alongside EU-sourced skincare and supplements for the diaspora market.

The tastes of home, wherever you are. European cheeses, cold cuts, baby food, pasta, chocolate and more — imported and delivered across Africa for the diaspora community.
Millions of European expatriates, returning Africans, and diaspora families across the continent miss the flavours they grew up with.

For African vendors, this is a high-margin category with minimal local competition. List imported EU food products with 15–18% platform commission — the best margin tier on Matoke.

Matoke is built on collaboration. Join as an institutional partner, investor, NGO, or government to unlock Africa's agricultural potential.
Africa's integrated agricultural marketplace — built from the ground up to connect farmers, landowners, buyers, and investors across the continent and beyond.
"Named after Uganda's most cherished staple food, Matoke stands for something bigger than produce. It stands for the potential sitting in African soil that the world has barely begun to see."
We built Matoke because Africa feeds itself and increasingly feeds the world — yet the systems that move food from farm to table, and capital from investors to farmers, have remained fragmented, informal, and inaccessible. We are changing that.
Matoke is built for the smallholder farmer in Kabale who has three acres and no buyer. The landowner in Masaka whose fields sit idle while they work in the city. The machinery dealer in Kampala trying to reach farmers in Lira. The Kenyan buyer who needs fresh matoke delivered before the week is out. The diaspora investor in London or Dubai who wants their money working in the land they come from. And the international exporter who needs a trusted, compliant source of African agricultural goods.
If your life touches African agriculture — as a grower, an owner, a buyer, an investor, or a partner — Matoke is built for you.
To make African agriculture the most connected, most fairly priced, and most investable sector on the continent — by giving every farmer, landowner, and buyer the tools that were previously only available to large corporations.
Every transaction on Matoke flows through Africa's own financial infrastructure. We support M-Pesa, MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, Orange Money, and card payments — in Ugandan Shillings, Kenyan Shillings, Nigerian Naira, Ghanaian Cedi, South African Rand, and US Dollars. Pay in the currency you earn in. We handle the rest.
Every transaction flows through Africa's own financial infrastructure — not international card networks that charge conversion fees and exclude the unbanked.
Pay in the currency you earn in. Receive payouts to your mobile wallet within 72 hours of a confirmed transaction. No bank account required to sell on Matoke.
A continent where no fertile land sits idle. Where every harvest has a buyer before it is planted. Where any African — anywhere in the world — can invest in their homeland's soil and share in its growth.
List your land, set your revenue share, and let certified farmers work it. Earn passively — no farming skills needed.
