Cairo, Egypt — Croptimus, an Egyptian agritech startup focused on regenerative agriculture and sustainable bio-products, has secured an undisclosed investment from Venture X.
Founded in 2021 by Ahmed Hassanein and Abdelrahman AlAtrash, Croptimus converts agricultural and food waste into high-value bio-products such as biochar, activated oil, and bio-oil. The company’s solutions help farms reduce water and fertiliser usage, improve crop health, and lower carbon emissions across B2B agricultural supply chains.
The fresh investment will be used to scale Croptimus’ technology and support its regional and international expansion, as the startup looks to strengthen sustainable agricultural practices across Egypt and beyond.
Croptimus serves B2B agricultural supply chains, aiming to make them more efficient, resilient, and environmentally sustainable. Its model aligns with the growing regional focus on food security, climate resilience, and resource optimisation.
The startup is a graduate of the Harvest Accelerator, a programme dedicated to transforming the agricultural sector and reinforcing regional food systems through innovation.
Commenting on the investment, Farah Al-Nahhas said the deal represents a positive addition from a new investment group, expressing optimism that more angel investors will step forward to support agritech startups across the region.
Ahmed Hassanein, Founder of Croptimus, said the partnership with Venture X marks a significant milestone in the company’s growth journey, reinforcing its mission to deliver innovation with measurable environmental and economic impact while expanding its sustainable agricultural solutions regionally and internationally.
