Kenchic Limited

Kenchic is Kenya’s top integrated poultry company, founded in 1984 to empower poultry farmers and strengthen the country’s food system. The company produces high-quality day-old chicks, including Layers, Broilers, and Kenbro breeds. These chicks are bred for performance, disease resistance, and reliability, supporting farmers across various production systems.

Kenchic provides end-to-end support to poultry farmers. It offers training, technical advice, feeds, equipment, and access to specialized poultry centres. Through its Learning Hub, farmers gain the skills and knowledge needed to run profitable and sustainable poultry operations. This approach improves productivity, strengthens biosecurity, and enhances market outcomes.

The company also produces a wide range of value-added poultry products, including whole chicken, cuts, sausages, and processed items. By operating a fully traceable farm-to-family value chain, Kenchic ensures food safety, animal welfare, and biosecurity. As a result, safe, nutritious, and affordable protein reaches households across Kenya.

Sustainability is central to Kenchic’s operations. The company invests in renewable energy, wastewater management, and waste reduction. It also promotes responsible antimicrobial use and aligns its practices with UN Sustainable Development Goals, including zero hunger, decent work, and environmental stewardship.

Guided by its purpose of enabling shared prosperity through sustainable poultry production, Kenchic continues to drive growth in Kenya’s poultry sector. Its commitment to farmers, consumers, and communities makes it a trusted partner in building food security, supporting livelihoods, and advancing sustainable agriculture.
