Saudi Agritech Nabt Secures $3.4M Seed Funding Led by SHG Group

Saudi-based agritech startup Nabt has raised $3.4 million in a Seed Extension led by SHG Group, with participation from Merak Capital and angel investors, bringing total funding to $5 million. The announcement was made during the Sunbola program event under the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture. The capital will support expansion into new Saudi cities, a broader product portfolio, stronger national customer networks, and enhanced operational infrastructure to improve farmer reach and supply stability, aligning with the Kingdom’s food-security agenda.

Nabt is building the infrastructure that moves fresh produce—from on-ground logistics to software that links farmers directly with businesses. The 2022-founded company says its model is designed to cut inefficiencies and deliver consistent, high-quality supply to buyers while improving farmer access to markets.

The startup operates an expanding warehouse hub for fulfilment, sorting, and last-mile cold-chain logistics that connects farmers directly with commercial buyers. It has launched an Online Auction platform to enable large-scale trading across the Kingdom, aiming to increase transparency, improve pricing, and widen market access for farmers.

Nabt also offers Nabt Intel, a real-time market-intelligence tool providing live pricing data and demand trends to help producers maximise crop value and help businesses plan purchases with greater accuracy. The company frames its strategy as part of Saudi Arabia’s wider effort to modernise agriculture and build resilient food-supply systems.
