Kenya’s location and infrastructure make it ideal for exports:

🌱 Expansion Opportunities

• 🔹 IIGAD has identified additional farmland surrounding the current site.

• 🔹 We have access to lease over 1,000 acres of land if needed for expansion.

• 🔹 This allows us to scale quickly with investor support and demand-based production.

• 🔹 Long-term goal: expand core production area from 300 to 600+ acres owned, with additional leased acreage as needed.

This flexibility allows us to meet future export contracts, pilot specialty crops, or set up on-site processing as operations mature.
