Greenikk
India
Greenikk is creating a digital ecosystem focused on banana farmers, supported by a robust technology stack. They aim to disrupt and digitize the entire banana value chain by developing a solution for bananas. Ohkela is a brand under Greenikk, offering an AI and IoT-based ecosystem that addresses the problems faced by all stakeholders, including banana farmers, processing units, commission agents, bulk B2B buyers and fibre buyers. Greenikk views the banana as a plant rather than just a fruit, looking to utilize all the parts of the banana plant – leaf, stem and flower – that are currently going to waste.
