Nedbank and PrysWys put SA’s farmers in the driving seat!

Nedbank And Pryswys Put Sa’s Farmers In The Driving Seat!

A powerful new alliance is reshaping the way South African farmers trade, finance and thrive. Nedbank Agribusiness has joined forces with PrysWys, South Africa’s leading online agri-input marketplace, to deliver what farmers need most right now: affordable inputs, accessible finance and zero hassle.

From fertiliser and seed to feed and fuel, and now with finance at farmers’ fingertips, this partnership is more than just smart. It’s future farming, delivered today.

Why this matters now

With rising input costs and tight margins, every rand counts. Farmers are under pressure to stay profitable, efficient and sustainable all at once.

“This collaboration is about boosting local trade, improving access to finance and delivering convenience for farmers,” says Desry Lesele, Senior Manager for Agribusiness Client Value Propositions at Nedbank Commercial Banking. “Nedbank provides the funding, while PrysWys simplifies the buying process with trusted suppliers and wholesale prices.”

Together, they’re unlocking value in the supply chain and removing the barriers that slow farmers down.

Meet PrysWys

PrysWys, powered by SwiftVEE, is a smart, user-friendly online marketplace built for South African farmers. It cuts through the noise by directly connecting farmers to reliable suppliers of fertilisers, seed, feed and more – all at wholesale prices.

And now, with Nedbank finance built into the platform, farmers can request quotes, compare prices, place orders and secure funding all in one place.

“This isn’t just about buying inputs; it’s about unlocking the entire value chain,” says Russel Luck, CEO of SwiftVEE. “Nedbank is proving it truly sees money differently. This partnership is showing what’s possible when fintech meets agritech.”

What farmers get

  • Access to wholesale input pricing
  • Finance available directly on the platform
  • Expert guidance from the PrysWys team
  • Quick and seamless ordering and delivery

Efficiency. Trade facilitation. Sustainability. These are more than just buzzwords – they’re the building blocks of a stronger, more resilient agricultural economy.

This isn’t just another platform. It’s a revolution in how South Africa farms, finances and feeds the future. Nedbank is funding the future. PrysWys is powering the platform. And farmers? They’re finally in the driver’s seat!

During Nampo 2025, this collaboration sparked major interest from farmers and agribusinesses alike. But if you missed it, don’t worry the platform is live and ready. You can explore it here: Download the app or visit pryswys.com
