Growing Zambia's future, one farmer at a time.
Connecting farmers with markets, weather intelligence, transport, and agro-shops — whether they use a smartphone or a basic phone.
The challenges facing Zambia's farmers
Millions of farmers work tirelessly every season, yet many still struggle because they lack access to timely information, profitable markets, modern tools, and digital services.
The digital divide
A large share of Zambia's smallholder farmers don't own a smartphone. WEMAT is built to work over SMS and a basic web browser too, not just an app.
Language barriers
Many rural farmers speak a local language day-to-day, not English. WEMAT supports 10 languages so information reaches people the way they actually speak.
Limited market access
Without visibility into prices elsewhere, farmers often sell to the first buyer at the farm gate — usually not the best price available that day.
Limited agricultural services
Trusted agro-dealers, transport, and weather intelligence remain hard to reach in many rural communities.
Every farming solution, in one place
WEMAT brings together the essential services a farmer needs across a season — not a dozen separate apps and phone calls.
Weather intelligence
Forecasts based on your location, to help plan planting and harvest.
Live crop prices
Know today's market price before you decide where to sell.
AI-assisted recommendations
Data-driven guidance on what's trending and worth growing.
Transport marketplace
Book a registered transporter directly, no middleman needed.
Agro-shop directory

Multi-language platform

Connecting farmers to markets
Helping farmers sell smarter, earn more, and reach better opportunities.
Where opportunity meets agriculture
Every day, thousands of farmers trade in Zambia's markets — many without knowing the current price or where demand is highest. WEMAT changes that by connecting farmers with live prices, transport, and market intelligence in one place.

Building a digital farming community for Zambia
Technology that pays off at harvest
To empower every farmer with accessible technology that improves productivity, increases income, and builds sustainable agricultural communities.
Goal: reach 100,000 farmers by December 2027.
Looking ahead: we're exploring expansion beyond Zambia into Malawi, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Mozambique, and Tanzania — not yet live, but part of where we want WEMAT to go.
Feedback that shapes WEMAT
Illustrative of the kind of impact we're building toward — we'll be sharing real farmer stories here as they come in.
"Knowing where to sell before I even leave the farm would save me a full day of travel."
"Being able to compare a transporter's price before booking makes budgeting for harvest season much easier."
"Getting information in my own language instead of just English makes it feel like it was actually built for us."
