The company is closely related to Advance Consulting, a business development consultancy firm operating in Africa, Asia and Latin America since 1999. Our North Star is to contribute to the development of vibrant, green and inclusive SMEs in the Agri-food and Renewable Energy sectors. We support clients in emerging markets with the technology required to transform their companies, with the goal of professionalizing, streamlining and growing their businesses. In addition to standard Odoo implementations, we use Odoo as a platform all our digital solutions.
Our approach
Our unique hybrid approach combines app-based digital solutions with professional IT services. We use Odoo as a platform to develop dedicated applications for specific sectors, value chains and use cases. We also support clients with straight Odoo implementation, and technological, financial and operational consultancy. We leverage our experience in working with SMEs to create digital solutions that match the reality of our clients on the ground. Our team has significant experience working with and in SMEs and our deep understanding of agricultural and renewable energy value chains enables us to be a real partner for our clients. Our services include Odoo implementation, development of custom applications on the Odoo platform and technology consultancy. Our financial and operational expertise enables us to support our clients with streamlining financial and operational processes, resulting in increased efficiencies, reduced losses and improved (data-based) decision making.
About Advance Insight
We believe that Agri-food SMEs play a key role in feeding a growing population, as they occupy critical value chain positions as producers, suppliers, off-takers, processors and distributors. At the same time, access to affordable energy is a pre-condition for sustainable development and SMEs in the renewable energy sector are pivotal in connecting the remaining 900 million unconnected people. We contribute to these goals by facilitating private sector development in an environmental-friendly, socially responsible and commercially sustainable way. Our fast-growing team is based in The Netherlands and Kenya (Nairobi).

The CAA started in 2006 as a small pilot project in the town of Bonsu Nkwanta, but before long it had members in all cocoa-growing areas of Ghana.

Despite strong evidence for invests in community health systems in Sub-Saharan Africa, a $4 billion+ funding gap persists. Furthermore, current donor funding supports mostly vertical, disease-specific Community Health Worker (CHW) programs that are costlier and less efficient than horizontal, integrated programs. National governments that seek to streamline and scale CHW programs face significant barriers including building political prioritization, developing policies, mapping resources, and establishing financing strategies. As a result, Ministry of Health teams often struggle to mobilize resources and scale robust, sustainable community health systems, with community health workers at their core.
FAH is working towards a new reality where domestic and international funders prioritize community health as a key contributor to achieving Universal Health Coverage and recognition of community health as a critical investment rather than a cost that burdens individual members of the society.
A key pillar in our doing business is to improve the yield and quality of Rwandan smallholder farmers. Our dedicated team of agronomists visits them during the crop cycle and regularly give the farmers advice, follow-ups, and training. Farmers who work with us get access to a premium market and weekly advice on improved ways of growing potatoes to have high-quality yields.
