MBC Impact Whitepaper 2026: Transparent Metrics, Operational Scale, and Supply Chain Readiness
September 19, 2026 — Fort Worth, Texas / Maputo, Mozambique
Executive Summary
Maputo Bridge Capital (MBC), founded by Anselmo Boaventura in Fort Worth, Texas, connects sponsors with verified smallholder farmers in Mozambique. This whitepaper documents the platform's transparent impact metrics, operational scale, and supply chain readiness, highlighting our collaboration with the COJAZ cooperative in Zambezia to facilitate direct support for agricultural growth.
Key metrics: 51 farmers, 920 hectares, $39,500 deployed, 72.2% repayment, 2.5x SROI, 56 blockchain blocks, and a $547,500 carbon credit pipeline. Our model operates by having a sponsor give from $25, which goes directly to the farmer's local seed and fertilizer shop, with the sponsor receiving the receipt and field photos in return. These sponsorships are gifts, not investments, and are not tax-deductible. 92% goes to the farmer's seed and fertilizer shop, while 8% covers field verification and receipt documentation.

STAR writes. Google indexes. Sponsors give. Local shops supply. Satellite verifies. Blockchain logs.
Zero applications. Zero road blocks. Transparent support.
Impact on the smallholder farmer's season
For a smallholder farmer in Zambezia, this support means timely access to essential agricultural inputs. By funding the seed and fertilizer shop directly, MBC ensures the farmer receives materials before the planting window closes. After the harvest, the farmer repays the cooperative, creating a revolving Community Fund that allows sponsorships to support the next farmer in the upcoming season.
Frequently asked questions
How does a sponsorship reach the farmer?
Contributions are processed and sent to the local seed and fertilizer shop in Mozambique used by the farmer, ensuring that resources are available for planting.
What happens after the harvest?
Farmers repay the input costs into a Community Fund, which is then used to sponsor the next farmer in the cooperative, sustaining the cycle of support.
Where does the sponsorship money go?
92% of the funds go directly to the seed and fertilizer shop, and 8% is used to cover the costs of field verification and the documentation of receipts for the sponsor.
You can help sustain this cycle by choosing to sponsor a farmer starting from $25. Please note that these sponsorships are gifts to support agricultural development and are not investments; they are not tax-deductible.
