He then shared something that stayed with me: “In less than a year, my bananas are already flowering.” It was a small moment, but it reminded me why I started. Seeing farmers benefit from clean banana plantlets of their preferred local varieties, combined with proper agronomy, shows that the work can make a real difference. My goal has always been to help farming communities access clean planting material while building the knowledge to grow it successfully. Today, we are bringing that vision closer by producing clean banana plantlets within the farming community, together with farmers and for the varieties they prefer.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/14a3bcaf-8e19-49b8-9f4c-c48001a32268/Orisa.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Orisa Raphael Jawino Founder–CEO GSS City (Ug) “A recent conversation with smallholder farmers reminded me why I started. Hearing about their resilience and determination despite limited access to markets reinforced my belief that real transformation is not just about increasing production. It is about creating systems that give farmers greater access to opportunities, strengthen their livelihoods, and build a sense of dignity and prosperity. Their experiences continue to shape the work I do and remind me of the bigger picture. That is the vision behind GSS-City.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/6826222f-3e44-4936-a061-2e8e378634c3/l.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Juliet Akumu Founder - Regen Forest Chicken “Being broke and unable to push things forward made me question so many things, including whether I could continue as a founder. A lot of what comes with building a business requires money from transport to move around and look for clients to following up, making connections, and keeping things moving. Limited resources made me question whether I could continue as a founder. Thanks to Rootical’s financial support, I was able to keep moving forward, even when things felt uncertain. It reminded me that sometimes, the right support at the right time can make the difference between giving up and taking the next step.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/ac2c1ca6-4eef-48b0-94fa-c6c42f2fb90e/Ruth+%282%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Napio Ruth Esther Dellucy Food Processing Hub (U)LTD “For a while, my business wasn’t growing the way I wanted, particularly in capital and sales. Looking back, I realised I wasn’t fully committed to the founder’s journey because I treated the business more like a side hustle. As a result, it lacked the focus and structure needed to grow. Through Rootical’s seminars and trainings, I learnt to manage my business finances and sales better, while separating business money from my personal expenses. These changes helped me become more intentional about how I ran and grew the business. Slowly, I started seeing a brighter future ahead. Today, I have a clearer vision for my business and feel more confident that I am on the right track in my journey as a founder.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/66fb3dc9-f0cc-479e-9c78-08bf0f4eb95f/Dan+%282%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Bwengye Duncan Founder - Xavisi “Yes, I sometimes feel trapped by the identity of a founder. It has become more than what I do; it is often who people think I am. The ambition, resilience, and constant problem-solving are rewarding, but they also come with pressure to always have the answers, keep pushing, and never slow down even through financial struggles, personal loss, and setbacks. Because I care deeply about building technology that solves real problems in Africa, my mind rarely switches off. I can easily tie my self-worth to the success or failure of my ventures. But I’m learning that being a founder is only one part of who I am. I want to create lasting impact without losing the person behind the mission. I want to be a founder, but also a good friend, teacher, family man, politician, lover or simply a normal guy who gets to live and enjoy life. Founder is not all I can be.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/ed6a1538-a09a-4d18-b4d1-879214da3da7/Jona.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Jonathan Odongo Otule Co-founder- Regraze “Yes, I’ve come to understand that a startup is built twice first through the founder, then through the product. The process of building a business often builds you faster than it builds the business itself. It pushes you to develop resilience, discipline, self-awareness, and the ability to navigate uncertainty. Before scaling a company, I believe you first have to define and strengthen the founder behind it. Enduring ventures begin when the founder is willing to grow alongside the vision.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/aa9f196e-0ac5-47b7-a3f6-3a2617c5e181/calo.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Nalubwama Caroline Co-Founder- YieldRoute Africa “The uncomfortable conversation I’m sometimes hesitant to have is challenging the status quo in agriculture. Transforming the sector means having honest conversations with farmers about practices we have become familiar with, but that may no longer be sustainable for the future. Those conversations can be difficult because they challenge long-held beliefs and ways of working. But I’m learning that avoiding them doesn’t move us forward. If we want to build a more resilient and sustainable agricultural sector, we have to be willing to question what isn’t working, listen to farmers, and explore better ways of doing things. The conversations may be uncomfortable, but they are necessary if we want to create lasting impact.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/23fe8d18-ca91-4449-96ab-e49cae460348/clare.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Akello Clare Founder - Kitchen Heaven “The uncomfortable conversation I’m sometimes avoiding is why some businesses remain small. It’s easy to blame rejection, difficult customers, or limited opportunities, but sometimes the real challenge is our own inconsistency and fear of trying again after a “no.” We also need to have honest conversations about finances, publicity, and building businesses that can survive without us. I’m learning that avoidance is more damaging than rejection. Growth means getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. If one out of ten doors opens, that is still progress. The goal is to build sustainable structures, understand the numbers, stay consistent, and reset without quitting.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/d284357e-3f7c-4075-80a3-2cfd7e4ae48e/igugugudfx+%281%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Ignatius Okore Founder & E.D YESRUD Uganda, “My father made one of the biggest sacrifices for my dream. At the time, he was a primary school teacher and couldn’t afford to even buy himself a mobile phone because he used the little resources he had to keep my elder sister and me in school. When I shared my vision with him, instead of questioning it, he believed in me and did everything he could to make it possible. His sacrifice went beyond financial support he gave me the opportunity to dream, pursue my vision, and believe that it was possible. A lot of what I am building today stands on the sacrifices he made yesterday.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/13d537b3-1897-4571-bbe3-8ceb2fc4924d/WhatsApp+Image+2026-06-25+at+11.44.47.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Omoding George Founder- GrainGuard “My mother gave me the room to become. There were countless conversations where I spoke for far too long about ideas that existed only in my head, and she listened anyway. She gave me the freedom to dream, explore, and figure things out without constantly pushing me toward the safer or more predictable path. Her patience and belief in me may not always have looked like a sacrifice, but it gave me something invaluable the space to become the person I am still growing into. Sometimes, the greatest sacrifice is simply believing in someone before they have anything to show for it.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/f48730ec-656a-4f8a-b673-6876f314a06d/WhatsApp+Image+2026-08-14+at+14.35.47.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Daniel Chavo Kisekka Founder & CEO - Veridian Bioharvest I hope my team remembers me as a values-driven leader, guided by integrity, respect, and accountability. A teammate once told me that I quietly work to “save other people’s days,” and that stayed with me. I want to be remembered as a servant leader — someone who listened, cleared obstacles, prioritised the foundational things that help people do their best work, and created space for others to succeed. For me, leadership is not about being the person with all the answers or taking all the credit. It is about helping others win, even when no one is watching. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/efb23afd-fcad-45ce-b06a-cce79f5cee08/IMG_1786-Edit+%282%29+%281%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Oreb Rubahimbya Founder- Regenera Wallet I hope my team remembers me as a leader who knew when to serve and when to adapt. I believe in combining servant leadership with adaptive leadership — servant leadership when working with agents, where listening, supporting, and removing barriers are essential, and adaptive leadership when working with the wider team, where circumstances require flexibility, learning, and the ability to respond to change. Ultimately, I want to be remembered as someone who understood that different people and situations need different kinds of leadership, while remaining grounded in respect, accountability, and a commitment to helping others succeed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/dc79b5e6-1648-40b5-8888-24408d841ee7/IMG_1603-Edit+%284%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Asasira Brenda Kakungulu Founder- Green Spark Beyond profits, I hope to show that businesses can be a force for solving real challenges in their communities while creating meaningful value for others. For me, success is not only about how much a business grows financially, but also about the lives it touches and the change it contributes to. By improving access to nutritious food and creating better and more reliable markets for agroecology producers, we can help farmers earn better livelihoods while making healthier food more accessible to communities. In doing so, we can build stronger local food systems that benefit both producers and consumers. Ultimately, I want to demonstrate that business and impact can grow together — creating healthier communities, stronger livelihoods, and a more regenerative future for all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/86a74271-68e1-4539-b26c-9f6d0608e392/IMG_1733-Edit+%282%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Chebet Diana Founder & CEO -Seed Trust I hope to make quality seed more accessible to farmers while strengthening local farmer networks and reducing dependence on unreliable suppliers. Access to good seed is an important first step, but I believe the bigger opportunity is to build a system where farmers are not simply recipients of planting materials, but active participants in shaping the food system. By working more closely with farmers, strengthening local production, and creating stronger networks for sharing knowledge and resources, we can improve both productivity and confidence. Beyond better harvests, the goal is to create more opportunity, resilience, and ownership — helping farmers have greater control over what they grow, how they grow it, and the future of the food system they are part of. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/d45218c5-cc31-438b-b061-2985698edeaa/IMG_1935-Edit+%283%29+%282%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Abu Musuuza Director Uganda- Rootical What made the biggest difference for me was combining a higher-protein diet with consistency in movement. I cut out most carbohydrates and committed to running or walking 3km every day for 100 days. It wasn’t always easy to stay consistent, especially on days when I didn’t feel motivated, but having a clear goal helped me keep going. Over time, I noticed a real difference in my energy levels, discipline, and overall routine. The experience taught me that meaningful change doesn’t always come from doing something extreme, but from making intentional choices and sticking with them long enough to become part of your lifestyle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/fe938876-b1c8-4034-8b54-d498e0eb9ad3/IMG_1819-Edit+%283%29+%281%29.jpg Stories - The Founder Lens - Innocent Ociti Founder - Ecologic One small change that has made a big difference in my energy is keeping my diet consistent and protein-heavy, mainly with pork, eggs, and plenty of yogurt. Having meals that keep me full and my energy steady throughout the day has helped me feel more focused and productive. I also enjoy cooking, which makes the change much easier to maintain. Rather than seeing it as a strict routine, I’ve found a way of eating that I genuinely enjoy and can stick with. Sometimes, the biggest changes come from finding simple habits that work for you and making them part of your everyday life. https://www.rootical.org/stories/the-cooperative-linking-farming-and-better-health-in-eastern-uganda monthly 0.5 2026-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/62d23d6b-ce2d-4fe3-a473-c298e703b778/WhatsApp+Image+2026-07-16+at+15.34.01.jpeg Stories -

Transforming Ownership to transform the Food System - For Innocent Ociti (photo), success transcends financial results or personal wealth. He is a co-founder of EcoLogic, aiming to address the last-mile distribution of organic inputs. When discussing what success would look like for EcoLogic, Innocent formulated this compelling answer, which sets the tone in the EcoLogic shareholder agreement: “The goal is to reach that golden point where we can afford to pay more to the local input producers and charge less to the farmers. It would improve the livelihoods of the input suppliers we work with, and make the transition to agroecology more affordable to smallholder farmers in Uganda and, thus, accelerate that transition and our impact.” https://www.rootical.org/stories/transforming-the-agri-food-sector-a-year-of-remarkable-evolution monthly 0.5 2024-12-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/d310f45f-3b9e-4eea-9880-6b9a0ff0e22c/ROOTICAL+DAY+1-93.JPG Stories - Transforming the Agri-Food System: 1 Year of Personal Growth - Make it stand out Hannes; Rootical Director with some of the 2023 Rootical Food System Leadership bootcamp participants during the egg challenge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/343f5bed-b44d-4a91-ba97-eb3e30312c6e/ROOTICAL+FARM+VISIT-27.JPG Stories - Transforming the Agri-Food System: 1 Year of Personal Growth - Make it stand out Rootical 2023 bootcamp participants at Jero Farm Uganda. https://www.rootical.org/stories/the-rootical-times-3-zlhet monthly 0.5 2024-12-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/96f3e91f-adc4-4c46-a0bf-332146497911/The+Rootical+Times+single+line.png Stories - The Rootical Times #5 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/c31b0686-c84f-4b58-8a57-5093b655e911/1733919985781.jpg Stories - The Rootical Times #5 - Make it stand out The Rootical Founders-in-Residence and team at the November Founders Gathering. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/33c80c8d-113f-472f-a939-dffb71e65923/1733919985738.jpg Stories - The Rootical Times #5 - Make it stand out The Rootical team: Elivis (Studio Officer), Speci (Communication intern), Isaac (Venture Builder), Ruth (Talent Manager) and Hannes (Managing Director). https://www.rootical.org/stories/hiring-a-biochemist monthly 0.5 2024-12-06 https://www.rootical.org/stories/guarding-fresh-a-shelf-life-extension-agri-food-businessnbsp monthly 0.5 2024-10-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/00e4a566-fdae-4270-a26f-1de40ce5953a/Garden+Fresh+team.JPG Stories - Guarding Fresh, a shelf life extension agri-food business.  - Make it stand out The Guarding Fresh team, Annet Diana (at the extreme left), Roselyn Ilemuyat and John Okello. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/7a584585-31df-4c94-ae63-00f75f4470a8/Annet+in+the+lab.jpeg Stories - Guarding Fresh, a shelf life extension agri-food business.  - Make it stand out Annet Diana in the lab, showcasing the Guarding Fresh shelf life extension solution. https://www.rootical.org/stories/sowing-the-seeds-of-success-eden-seeds monthly 0.5 2024-09-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/3408dc0b-5f53-43b3-b4b3-30860b28ff8a/Emmanuel+Luwemba.JPG Stories - Sowing the seeds of success with Eden Seeds. - The Genesis of Eden seeds Emmanuel Luwemba, the co-founder of Eden seeds https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/6903c272-afba-4bb4-bf40-b69f9e134c43/Eden+seeds+grain+in+the+shop.jpeg Stories - Sowing the seeds of success with Eden Seeds. - Make it stand out Bembe Agro input shop, in Bembe village Wakiso district one of the clients of Eden seeds that buys beans and maize. https://www.rootical.org/stories/regen-harvests-empowering-farmers-and-securing-futures monthly 0.5 2024-09-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/288f3adf-da66-4961-b35e-028a33ae7abd/Agro+Resilient+Harvests+team.JPG Stories - Regen Harvests: Empowering farmers and securing futures. - Make it stand out The Regen Harvests team, Hannington Wako (at the extreme left), Jimmy Ouni, Dr. Akite Irine with Orisa Raphael. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/452ef35c-75d6-49f9-a2f8-ed4648d82509/Regen+harvests+sucks+of+maize+in+the+ware+house.jpeg Stories - Regen Harvests: Empowering farmers and securing futures. - Connecting Farmers to Markets Another pressing challenge for Ugandan smallholder farmers has been the unpredictable nature of market access. Many farmers struggle to find reliable buyers for their produce, leading to income uncertainty while selling their produce at low prices. Regen Harvests is addressing this issue by establishing strong partnerships with off-takers, ensuring a consistent market for smallholder farmers’ harvests. By leveraging its extensive network and market expertise, Regen Harvets connects smallholder farmers directly with buyers who value quality regeneratively produced harvest. This direct linkage not only eliminates middlemen but also guarantees fair prices and timely payments, empowering farmers with a market for their produce. Many agro-processors are producing largely under their capacity, mainly due to supply issues. The buyers see this as a partnership to source ingredients reliably and consistently, both in quantity and quality. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/a8153e1f-f7b3-4c14-a145-c50beae0736d/Regen+harvest+team+in+the+field.jpeg Stories - Regen Harvests: Empowering farmers and securing futures. - Make it stand out The Regen Harvests team during one of their field visits. https://www.rootical.org/stories/ecologic-your-partner-in-organic-input-solutions monthly 0.5 2024-08-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/191a7b36-1a67-4f81-b9f8-49c1a1cf1ca1/Innocent+and+Brian.JPG Stories - Ecologic, your partner in organic input solutions. - Make it stand out Brian Kiprotich (on the left) with Innocent Ociti, the co-founders of Ecologic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/bc33d7ec-e806-4d90-a191-c394127ac5ca/Brian+teaching+farmers+about+organic+solutions.jpg Stories - Ecologic, your partner in organic input solutions. - Make it stand out Brian Kiprotich training farmers about organic input solutions during the Ecologic field visit. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/37926cad-ff81-43b1-b4df-6e325939ec14/Ecologic+team+with+Hannes+and+farmers.jpg Stories - Ecologic, your partner in organic input solutions. - Make it stand out The Ecologic team, Rootical director (centre) and farmers, during one of the Ecologic field visits. https://www.rootical.org/stories/meet-john-okello monthly 0.5 2024-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/a6b05f89-65cd-49f8-a0c0-1959476c5eef/Guarding+fresh+team.JPG Stories - Meet John Okello - Make it stand out The Guarding Fresh team; Annet Dianah Nannono (at the extreme left), Roselyn llemuyat and John Okello https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/3ce0e9a7-9c1e-42e6-9a9a-c7b1556c59bf/Guarding+fresh+team+with+Hannes.JPG Stories - Meet John Okello - Make it stand out Hannes Van den Eeckhout; The Founder and Rootical Director with the Guarding Fresh team https://www.rootical.org/stories/meet-annet-dianah-nannono monthly 0.5 2024-08-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/768d5461-7161-4287-9930-f362c41df94a/Annet+and+Roselyn.JPG Stories - Meet Annet Dianah Nannono - Make it stand out Annet Diana (on the left) with her co-founder Roselyn llemuyat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/be593371-1a17-488f-bfb0-2831e0ca66bb/Garden+Fresh+team.JPG Stories - Meet Annet Dianah Nannono - Make it stand out Annet Dianah (at the extreme left), Roselyn llemuyat and John Okello, the co-founders of Guarding Fresh. https://www.rootical.org/stories/meet-hannington-wako-kamanya monthly 0.5 2024-07-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/fd4b5fc3-7a76-4ee1-bfe6-ab35fd056a85/Agro+Resilient+Harvests+team.JPG Stories - Meet Hannington Wako Kamanya. - Make it stand out Team ‘agrobulking’ Hannington Wako (left), Jimmy Ouni, Dr. Akite Irine and Orisa Raphael https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6382315fe97acb1be10a1806/20066828-f81b-496f-99aa-3aa84741f11b/Hannington+Wako+Kamanya.JPG Stories - Meet Hannington Wako Kamanya. - Redefining Success; For Hannington, success is about building a regenerative agribusiness that empowers smallholder farmers and enhances food security.
