CEE: The Graveyard of Generic Models
CEE has become a graveyard for Agritech startups that tried to scale simple B2C SaaS. The region defies standard unit economics.
Why CEE is Different:
- •No "Copy-Paste": US models assume farmer liquidity. In CEE, liquidity is structurally frozen. Structural Insolvency (aka "Zombie Farms") requires a radical monetization shift—The Plumber Model.
- •Regulatory Whiplash: CEE is the frontline of the clash between EU Green Deal mandates and Eastern market dynamics. This creates unique "Compliance Pressure" not found anywhere else.
Our analysis proves that 90% of global Agritech models are uninvestable in Poland and CEE without a radical pivot to the "Integrator Model". We show you which 10% actually work.
The Public Thesis
For Agritech, the next unicorns in CEE won't grow crops better—they will fix the financial plumbing of insolvent farms. Regulatory Tech beats B2C SaaS.
The Product Promise
This report identifies the winners (Regulatory Tech) and losers (B2C SaaS), with granular Unit Economics to validate your strategy.
