"Over the course of more than 10 years, Root Capital has allowed me to grow, innovate, and actively collaborate with all areas of the organization. Is departmental pollination important? Absolutely! It benefits both our clients and our growth."

Root Capital has transformed my life and the lives of my loved ones! I’ve found the job I always wanted here—a place where my opinion matters, where my growth depends on my efforts. It’s a role where I contribute my grain of sand to help society because our work has a significant social impact. I believe this balance between helping and sustaining over time contributes to Root Capital’s success in fulfilling its mission and vision. Working with passion to generate impact feels incredibly rewarding!

I am excited to be part of a great team involved in advancing economic success and building the resilience of farming families around the world, while also combining it with environmental protection and social responsibility. Collaboration and cooperation are core to Root Capital’s values which has ensured that the propagation and implementation of its social, gender, capacity building and climate resilience and adaptation programs are done together with the local community which enhances the potential domino effect from such initiatives thereby creating sustainability.

"There are so many aspects of my job that inspire and motivate me. My work is interesting and I’m always learning something new. It is very fulfilling to know that my work contributes to the improvement of farmer livelihoods and environmentally sustainable practices. To top all that off, I get to work with an amazing group of talented and collaborative people who are committed to making the world a better place. I feel very lucky!"

I work every day under a solid organizational culture, with colleagues who are so committed and passionate about the mission, and with a high knowledge of the sector we serve. They develop strategies that seek to improve the living conditions of rural communities so that they are sustainable in the futureThis time is very motivating and adds great meaning to my work."

"I have been working at Root Capital for two years now. My greatest aspiration has always been to work with communities and contribute positively to their growth and development. Having a background in gender I'm especially keen on women and youth empowerment. I'm happy that working at Root Capital enables me to do that. I get to work with rural communities everyday through the partnerships that we have with our client agribusinesses. The impact of our contribution is evident, and I must admit that it is very fulfilling. Gives me a reason to show up daily!"

I am proud to be part of the Root Capital team and to be able to dedicate my physical and intellectual efforts to the fulfillment of a great mission. Our focus is on the growth of agricultural companies in our regions, as well as strengthening and empowering women and youth. Additionally, we are committed to the conservation of vulnerable ecosystems. Coming from a peasant family in southern Cauca (Colombia), it brings me great pleasure to see how we contribute a grain of sand to the development and progress of my community. Personally, I perceive the gratitude that customers have toward Root Capital, thanks to our financing products and training efforts. Furthermore, I appreciate Root Capital’s continuous desire to reinvent itself.
