Our Story

What started as a small agribusiness initiative has blossomed into a trusted, farmer-first enterprise

What started as a small agribusiness initiative has blossomed into a trusted, farmer-first enterprise serving the vast counties of Kenya. With first-hand knowledge of the real struggles faced by smallholder farmers; from unreliable rainfall to lack of access to quality inputs; Ke Devries was founded to offer more than just products. We offer partnership, Trainings, education, and Job opportunities.

Our Areas of Focus

Our work revolves around empowering farmers and transforming agriculture into a sustainable, profitable, and inclusive venture

Below are our key focus areas:

Enhanced Food Security

We increase food production and reduce post-harvest losses by scaling access to critical farm inputs. This boosts availability of nutritious food, improves quality of produce, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions tied to food waste.

Agricultural Productivity

We promote the use of high-quality seeds, fertilizers, and climate-smart practices to improve crop yields and overall farm performance across Kenya's key agro-ecological zones.

Income & Job Creation

Higher yields and better-quality produce increase farmers' income while enhancing their market competitiveness. Our programs create employment opportunities; particularly for people with disability, women and youths; across production, processing, and distribution chains.

Access to Credit & Financing

Through farmer schemes and equipment support (e.g. tractors), we enhance farmers' productivity and financial profiles. This strengthens their ability to access loans and invest in long-term growth.

Market Linkages

We connect smallholder farmers to reliable buyers, cooperatives, and aggregators, while promoting financial literacy and negotiation skills to improve market access and income stability.

Value Chain Development

Partnering with national initiatives like KCEP, we support farmers in high-impact value chains such as maize, sorghum, beans, soya, poultry, dairy, aquaculture and horticulture, ensuring improved incomes and better integration into the agricultural economy.

Farmer Capacity Building

Our field officers offer year-round, hands-on training in key areas such as fertilizer application, planting techniques, land preparation, pest management, post-harvest handling, crop storage, poultry keeping, handling aquaculture and dairy cattle management; empowering farmers with knowledge for success.
