| Deevabits Green Energy is a for-profit social enterprise headquartered in Kenya that distributes and finances essential products and services to rural customers through a team of commission-based village social entrepreneurs (VSEs). The VSEs form a robust distribution channel for improving energy access to underserved rural areas. At the same time,we finance customers through the pay-as-you-go model which enables the poorest households to own solar lighting products by paying for them in small installments hence removing the barrier for upfront payment. The company's vision is an Africa where everyone has equitable access to basic goods and services. | $50K / Debt Financing / Sep 24, 2021 | ||
