Farm and Function Ltd is quickly emerging as one of T&T’s most compelling agribusiness success stories, following a dramatic rescue and turnaround that has transformed the company from insolvency to rapid expansion in less than a year—while placing it at the centre of a broader national conversation on food security, import substitution and agricultural revival.
Leading that transformation is managing director and CEO, Dr Mikaeel Mohammed, who stepped in at a critical moment in late 2025 to take control of the struggling business.
“I got involved in it on the Planting Seeds Caribbean in 2018 as a silent shareholder. The two co-founders asked me to be an investor. I was a 25 per cent shareholder, but a silent investor and then at the end of 2025, the businesses weren’t doing very well and they were in some financial trouble and the two co-founders reached out to me to basically take it over and get them out of the financial challenges,” he shared with the Business Guardian.
