Building the Foundations
of Learning

Across Southern Africa, enrolment is rising faster than classrooms, sanitation and student housing can be built. Governments, education departments and private institutions have the mandate and often the budget, but projects stall in the gap between approval and payment, when contractors and suppliers must be funded long before the first invoice is settled.

AfriTrade Capital works in that gap. We structure the funding that lets approved projects start on time, connect clients with vetted construction and supply partners, and manage the cross-border procurement of materials and equipment. The result is infrastructure delivered on schedule, with every payment milestone tied to verified progress.

Our work spans public and private clients: provincial and national education departments, independent schools, tertiary institutions and the developers who build purpose-built student accommodation.
