Bio-Logical, a Kenyan climate startup, has secured USD 1.3 M in funding to expand its Mount Kenya biochar facility. The funds will go into increasing production capacity and enhancing its efforts to improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in Kenya. CrossBoundary, Redshaw Advisors and other existing investors, including the Steyn Group, led the funding round.
Founded by Rory Buckworth (CEO) and Philip Hunter in 2022, Bio-Logical uses technology to sequester carbon from agricultural waste and transform it into a useful, climate resilience-building fertilizer. The startup develops long term carbon removal projects that aim to regenerate land and forests. The startup intends to establish three new sites across Kenya over the next 18 months.
