Agribooth: bringing modern farming equipment to all farmers at affordable rates


 In 2016, Agribooth´s founder Raymond Chen had a contract to supply tractors to the government. However, the contract was eventually cancelled due to lack of funds on the part of the government. This led to disappointment in farmers who eagerly anticipated the arrival of the tractors. As a result of this, Agribooth was borne with the aim of addressing the needs of the farmers without placing too much burden directly on them.

A few words about your competitors

We have 2 main competitors and a few small-scale competitors. TOHFAN is one of our main competitors. They have a fleet of 200+ tractors but they use the “bookkeeping” method of making tractor bookings. They are also restricted to a few locations within the country. Our second main competitor is Hello Tractor. They use similar technology to ours, however, they are more focused on sales of their tracking device than tractor leasing. They also do not have tractors of their own and rely on tractors owned by 3rd party individuals.
