Mission to be accomplished by Impact Startups

The origin of Sagri's founding is in Rwanda, Africa.

In 2016, when I was educating elementary school children there, I asked the children to present their dreams. Each one of them had a dream. However, due to family circumstances and other factors, many of the children were not able to go to junior high or high school, and I learned that many of them gave up on those dreams and helped their parents. The most common among them was helping their parents with farming.

This was a great shock to me. I sought for a way to support such analog agricultural sites with satellite data, which is available free of charge, and this led to the founding of Sagri. With the support of many people, Sagri, which was founded in Tamba City, Hyogo Prefecture in 2018 with absolutely no agricultural knowledge, is now delivering its services to agricultural sites facing challenges in Japan, Asia, Africa, and Central and South America.

Our mission to solve the issues facing analog agriculture has not changed, and we feel that we are now better able to face the challenges facing humanity and the earth, such as the food crisis and climate change, for the future of the next generation. We believe that a true impact startup is a company that is able to achieve sustainable business growth while maintaining its focus on solving social issues. Sagri will continue to grow to become one of the model cases of such a startup.
