Frigoken Ltd (Spiceken EPZ Ltd) is an export-oriented horticultural processing company based in Kenya. The company processes and exports vegetables for international markets and works with thousands of smallholder farmers across the country. It produces vegetables throughout the year and supplies value-added horticultural products to buyers in Europe and other global markets.
Frigoken operates a vegetable processing facility designed for export standards. The factory receives raw produce from contracted farmers and company supply networks.

Farmers receive technical advice, seed support, and crop management guidance. This system links rural producers to export markets and supports consistent vegetable supply for processing.
