Equator Kenya is a leading food processor and
chili exporter in Kenya. It has a huge market in Europe (Spain and the Netherlands). However clients demand are not met due to low production and weaknesses in farm level post-harvest handling. The partnership has introduced an affordable drip kit set to increase yields per unit area and reduce over reliance on rain fed production. It also provides extension services to the farmers and access to affordable farm inputs. In addition to this the partnership seeks to enable SHFs access to financial services by joining and formal registration of farmers groups.
