IMPACT STORIES
Financing Regenerative Growth
ODF provides seasonal working capital to local exporters, linking certified organic farmers to premium markets and fostering long-term buyer partnerships. Our approach supports smallholders, creates jobs for women and youth, and promotes sustainable growth across emerging market value chains.
Support Sustainable Agriculture Practices and Avert Deforestation
Agri-food systems are a leading cause of environmental destruction globally. Food production must keep up with population growth, yet a wholesale transition is required to reduce and reverse the damage done by this production.
Impact Linked Finance
BIX Capital and its successor fund, BIX2 are redefining impact investing through its pioneering results-based financing model. By linking loans to verified outcomes—such as carbon credits —they unlock upfront working capital for SMEs delivering life-changing solutions like clean cookstoves and safe water systems. Once credits are issued and sold, they generate the revenue to repay investments, creating a powerful cycle of scale and impact.
Impact Finance for a Circular Textile Supply Chain
Pratibha and SKML are frontrunners in India’s textile industry, each driving sustainability through innovation. Pratibha is a pioneer in the farm-to-fashion sector with a vertically integrated business model, leading the way in garment traceability and the use of regenerative organic cotton. SKML, part of the larger KG Group, is a leading producer of cotton yarn and sustainable denim fabrics, transforming cotton and cotton waste into high-quality textiles through advanced spinning and weaving operations.
