About

Building Africa's bioeconomy.

Cyvora Biotech was founded on a simple belief: Africa shouldn't only consume the technologies of the bioeconomy. It should help build them.

Our story

East Africa has rich biological resources, farming systems that produce large streams of organic material, growing scientific talent and fast-growing markets for food, feed and energy. Too often, those pieces aren't connected.

Cyvora exists to connect them. We have grown into a company that supplies bio-fertilizer, feeds, algae biomass and aquaponics systems, with a research pipeline in carbon, energy, materials and automation.

Our mission

To turn biological resources into sustainable products that solve environmental, agricultural, industrial and climate challenges.

Our vision

A world where biology powers a circular, resilient and sustainable economy, with Africa helping to lead it.

Our values

Six things we hold to.

  • Scientific rigour

    We test before we claim.

  • Circularity

    We design out waste.

  • African innovation

    We build for African resources and markets first.

  • Commercial focus

    We move science into products people use.

  • Environmental responsibility

    Our operations should do what our products promise.

  • Collaboration

    We get further with partners than alone.

Why Cyvora

  • Biology-first

    We use living systems as productive technology.

  • Circular by design

    Resources stay in productive cycles.

  • Rooted in Uganda

    Designed around local resources, crops and markets.

  • Commercially focused

    We already sell what we make.

  • Cross-sector

    One platform serves agriculture, aquaculture, energy and materials.

  • Globally ambitious

    Built in Africa, for global applications.

Where we work. Headquartered in Kampala, Uganda. We supply customers across Uganda and work with partners across East Africa.

Partnerships

Let's build the bioeconomy together.

No one builds a bioeconomy alone. We work with organisations that bring science, scale, reach or capital, and we bring biology that already works in the field.
