We’re supporting thousands of entrepreneurs, farmers, and individuals through tri-sector projects.

As business recognizes the role the African continent plays in our global economy, Pyxera Global continues to build on the experience of two decades working in this dynamic cultural landscape.

Within Africa, we are building relationships and thought leadership to connect African businesses across the continent along with global organizations.

Pyxera Global works hand in hand with communities to foster competitive enterprises. Our work often links small and medium-sized businesses into larger supply chains for greater systems change.

With over 185 projects in the region, we continue supporting entrepreneurs through cross-sector projects funded by corporations and international government agencies, such as the United States Agency for International Development and the German Agency for International Cooperation. Our programs have enabled tens of thousands of entrepreneurs, farmers, and individuals to take on new practices and solutions to expand their businesses and reach—building a better economic model for the future.
