Rekord and E-Livestock Global Partner to Boost Cattle Financing in Africa
In a groundbreaking partnership, Rekord AG and E-Livestock Inc. are working together to solve a real and pressing problem for African farmers: how to prove the value and authenticity of their livestock in order to access fair financing.
E-Livestock, a forward-thinking agri-tech company, is transforming the way cattle are tracked and verified. Through its digital platform, farmers can now turn their animals into verified, tamper-proof digital assets something that was nearly impossible with traditional, trust-based systems.

“E-Livestock is already making a real impact across Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Zambia, and Uganda. By combining RFID ear tags with easy-to-use mobile apps, the company gives each animal a secure digital identity. This identity stores everything from ownership and vaccination history to movement patterns all in a way that can’t be faked or altered. For farmers, it means their cattle can now serve as trusted collateral for loans. And for lenders and buyers, it provides the transparency and confidence they need to make informed decisions.. “Rekord’s verification turns our data from simple records into courtroom-grade evidence.”

Rekord AG brings its blockchain expertise to the table, anchoring all of this data to public networks to ensure it’s secure and immutable. This removes the need for middlemen, cuts down costs, and protects against fraud—all while giving farmers a stronger hand in negotiations.
“As E-Livestock continues to expand, we’re providing the infrastructure and advisory support they need to scale rapidly,” said James Marchant, CEO of Rekord. “This partnership isn’t just about tech—it’s about real-world impact. We’re using blockchain to democratize access to capital and reshape how trust works in agriculture.”
Together, Rekord and E-Livestock are opening up access to financial tools, global markets, and supply chain transparency for communities that have historically been underserved. By creating digital proof of ownership and health records, they’re not only empowering farmers but also laying the groundwork for better food security and disease management across the continent.
