Transforming sustainability into opportunities across East Africa

Who We Are

Green Bank Credit is at the forefront of Africa’s sustainability revolution. Our innovative approach combines environmental stewardship with economic empowerment, helping individuals, businesses, and communities unlock the untapped potential of carbon markets.

As a Rwandan-registered company operating across East Africa, we specialize in bridging the gap between local conservation efforts and global climate goals.

Our Story

Founded with the vision of creating a sustainable future, Green Bank Credit began as a mission to tackle two critical challenges: deforestation and rural poverty. Over the years, we’ve evolved into a dynamic organization that merges advanced technology with practical solutions, allowing farmers and businesses to thrive while protecting the environment.

over 284,999 hectares of forested land

Today, we are proud to work with over 284,999 hectares of forested land across Kenya and are actively expanding to achieve our goal of 1 million hectares by next year.

Our Core Values

  • Sustainability: Innovative solutions to protect the environment.
  • Empowerment: Supporting farmers and landowners to preserve natural resources.
  • Transparency: Trust, fairness, and accuracy in all processes.
  • Innovation: Leveraging AI and cutting-edge technologies.

Impact Beyond Numbers

At Green Bank Credit, success isn’t just about hectares of land or tons of carbon offset—it’s about the lives we touch.

  • Farmers Empowered: Thousands of farmers now earn regular income through carbon credit trading.
  • Forests Preserved: Vast areas of forestland are protected, ensuring biodiversity.
  • Global Contributions: Programs aligned with the United Nations SDGs.

Our Leadership

Green Bank Credit is led by a team of passionate experts with diverse backgrounds in data science, sustainability, and economic development. Our CEO, John Paul Watenya, brings over 15 years of experience in the banking and data science sectors, ensuring our solutions are both innovative and impactful. Under his leadership, we have established partnerships with global organizations, such as SEMMCORP NetZero and Carbon Trade Exchange (CTX), to bring international opportunities to local communities.

Partnerships That Matter

Green Bank Credit thrives on collaboration. By partnering with local governments, NGOs, and international organizations, we amplify the impact of our initiatives. Together, we are creating a network that transforms conservation into a profitable, sustainable venture for everyone involved.

Looking Ahead

Our journey has just begun. As we continue to grow, our focus remains on expanding our reach, refining our processes, and making the carbon market more accessible to East African communities. By mid-next year, we aim to register over 1 million hectares of land and further empower communities to take charge of their environmental and economic futures.
