Our solutions and value-add services across Africa’s agricultural sector seek to support an improvement in revenues for farmers and enhance productivity across the continent’s entire agricultural ecosystem.
The timely use of specific products to fight against diseases, weeds and pests can maximise the efficacy of fertilizers and enhance yields. The accelerating shift towards precision-agriculture for chemical inputs – including the implementation of biological crop protection and organic fertilizers for soil management – is driving productivity in a more targeted, sustainable way.
Our ability to act and react quickly in providing proper crop protection solutions, or to offer seeds adapted to specific conditions, ultimately impacts on food security, both in Africa and globally. The effects of climate change threaten to reduce agricultural productivity by up to a third across large parts of the African continent over the next 60 years, creating an underpin of urgency to our endeavours in support of the region’s farmers.
Across the continent, our logistical networks extend throughout the entire value chain, from individual small holder farmers to multinational plantations.
At Solevo group, we focus on inputs and products across four key areas as:
- Crop Nutrition (Fertilizers and Micronutrients)
- Crop Protection (Herbicides, Fungicides, Insecticides)
- Seed Treatments
- Post-Harvest Solutions
- Biostimulants
- Seeds
- Nutrition
- Plant Protection
- Biostimulants
We also focus on inputs and solutions across key areas including:
- Tailor-made, soluble and other innovative fertilizers
- Organic fertilisers
- Biological and chemical pesticides
- Wetting agents, Spreaders, and Adjuvants
- Specialized solutions for irrigation and water management
- Soil Health and Enhancement
We are innovating across all stages of the value chain:
- Customer centricity through our “Club Partenaire” distribution network with training and support on the best agricultural practices.
- Innovation in our portfolio through bio-solutions products.
- Development of a new generation of specialized products with a reduced environmental impact.
- Creation of digital solutions to support, monitor, train, and advice all the stakeholders in Agro-production and distribution.
We undertake the following initiatives that prioritize sustainability:
- Actively sourcing fertilizers and crop protection products produced using more energy-efficient processes.
- Developing and supporting precision agriculture technologies to assist farmers in waste reduction, runoff and leaching risk mitigation, and optimizing nutrient absorption.
- Providing education to farmers on optimal farming practices, such as the utilization of cover crops, crop rotation, and no-till farming.
- Collaborating with community organizations to bolster sustainability efforts, including involvement in carbon trading and offsetting programs, alongside participation in reforestation, afforestation, and renewable energy projects.

Our other business segments
CASE
The fabric of the construction environment across Africa is undergoing dynamic transformation, with rapid urbanisation, demographic growth, a need for housing and critical infrastructure.
Food & Nutrition
Our work in food and nutrition with customers, businesses and communities across our geographies seeks to meet the need for increased production of higher quality food across the continent.
Personal Care and Hygiene
Major shifts in the demand profile for hygiene products – from personal care to home and laundry – are accelerating as a result of the rapid evolution in Africa’s demographics and urban centres.
Water Treatment
Across Africa, the development of essential water and wastewater structures is a core priority for all stakeholders – governments, investors and corporate actors.
Mining & Energy
As Africa’s dynamic transformation continues, the opportunity for extractive industries, minerals and ores is evolving rapidly, but there is also a need for energy as a building block for growing economies.
Packaging
The exponential growth of FMCG across Africa has driven new demand for packaging – from cardboard boxes to food packing solutions – across all consumer goods channels.
