Our History

We, part of East African Growers Group, started off as fruit and vegetable exporters in 1966, the group has grown exponentially into one of Kenya’s leading horticultural experts. We have over 55 years of expertise in growing, processing and exporting horticultural produce to more than 40 countries across the globe, in line with local and international market requirements.

East African Growers Limited, the parent company, was founded and registered in 1966 by the Mahajan Family. Their beginning was through the export of fresh fruits and vegetables into Europe and the Middle East. In 1998, the company then diversified into flowers after acquiring Wilham (K) Limited and Shalimar Flowers (K) Limited, followed by Mahee Farm in 2005 and Mwanzi Farm in 2009. The company’s portfolio continues expanding as new farms are acquired and multiplication of all its divisions is conducted with the prospect of providing clients with further value-added goods from our existing line.
