We ask attendants of the CFMC networking event, what matters more in business development; skill, capital or network?

One year on: we are revisiting the deal that reshaped how we think about private capital in Tanzania 🇹🇿

This is a moment to look back at one of the transactions we're most proud of and the impact of USD 15 million private debt financing AFRICAPITAL and our investment partners closed with our client, KIJENGE ANIMAL PRODUCTS LTD in Arusha.

At the time, this ranked among the largest private-sector SME refinancing deals ever completed in Tanzania. A year later, what stays with us isn't the size of the deal, it's what it proved: that institutional capital can back high-impact Tanzanian businesses without compromising on trust or transparency.

Grateful to , CRDB Bank Plc , DSM Consulting Group and everyone who made this transaction possible. Deals like this are why the work matters.

Not all capital is the same and choosing the wrong structure is expensive.
The structure you choose signals how your deal is underwritten, who
your investors are, and what they expect in return. 

Private credit. Debt financing. Venture capital. Private equity. Blended finance.  Five terms
that shape deals across Africa, yet they're used interchangeably every
day.
