Twiga Foods


Revolutionizing African Retail

Description

Twiga builds fair and reliable markets for agricultural producers and retailers through transparency, efficiency and technology. Twiga Foods Ltd is a business-to-business marketplace platform that sources produce directly from farmers and delivers it to urban retailers at below market prices.

We source quality produce from Kenyan farmers, and deliver to vendors in urban areas.

Since 2014, Twiga has been bridging gaps in food and market security through an organised platform for an efficient, fair, transparent and formal marketplace. Today, we source quality produce from thousands of farmers, providing them with a ready guaranteed market, and deliver from our pack houses to thousands of vendors, at prices fair to everyone.
