Kenya Nut Company – Nut Processor in Nairobi

Kenya Nut Company is one of the country's best-known agricultural businesses. It was set up in 1974 in the Kenyan highlands as Kenya's first macadamia processing company, growing and processing macadamia and cashew nuts, and has since moved into coffee, chocolate, oils, tea, honey, wine and beef.

The company employs more than 1,200 people and runs seven farms on over 8,000 acres, with a complete chain from seedlings to packed products sold across Kenya and in more than 50 export markets. Processing is done in a HACCP-certified environment.
