Certified, Climate-Smart Storage You Can Trust
Agriculture in East Africa faces one of its biggest challenges not in the field but after the harvest. Research shows that up to 40% of harvested grain is lost post-harvest due to poor storage, pests, moisture damage, and contamination. For many depositors, whether smallholder farmers, traders, cooperatives, or large-scale producers, these losses mean income wiped out, food insecurity at the household level, and weaker bargaining power when engaging with buyers.At agriBORA, we believe that safe, certified storage is the foundation for professionalizing grain trade. That’s why we developed agriGHALA, our network of climate-smart warehouses licensed under the Warehouse Receipt System Council (WRSC) and County Governments. With agriGHALA, depositors can safeguard their harvest, preserve its quality, and turn stored grain into a financial asset through our integrated platform.
Our Storage Solutions
Why Storage Matters
Poor storage does not just mean a bag of maize spoiling. It means school fees unpaid, debts piling up, and communities facing food shortages even when harvests are good. Unregulated storage environments often lead to:
Moisture Damage: Makes cereals unfit for sale and shortens their shelf life.
Aflatoxin Contamination: Lowers product value and creates serious health risks for consumers.
Pest Infestation: Leads to major storage losses and reduces overall marketable yield.
Distress Sales: Forces depositors to sell early at low prices to avoid further losses.

What Secure Storage Solutions Offer
Secure Storage Solutions
At agriBORA, our Secure Storage Solutions are designed to address every weak point in traditional cereal handling.
Strict Quality Standards
At intake, we test for:
- Moisture content ≤ 13.5%
- Aflatoxin ≤ 7 ppb
- Foreign matter thresholds
These checks guarantee that only safe and market-ready cereals enter our system, protecting both depositors and buyers.
Professional Grain Handling
Our warehouses use best-in-class storage practices including drying, fumigation, pest control, and safe bagging. This protects deposits from environmental risks while preserving quality.
Electronic Warehouse Receipts (eWRS)
Once cereals are deposited and verified, depositors receive an electronic warehouse receipt. This is a legal proof of ownership, recorded digitally, which can be traded, used as collateral for finance, or redeemed at the time of sale.
Flexibility and Transparency
We maintain clear pricing for services, including booking, intake, storage per bag per month, and discharge fees. This ensures depositors know exactly what to expect without hidden costs.
