Cultivating Kenya’s Avocado Future

Demand for avocados continues to increase as awareness and adoption grow globally due to the fruit's super-food qualities.  However, traditional avocado producing regions already under-serve this demand, and this shortfall is further exacerbated by issues stemming from climate changes and ethical sourcing. 

Kenya's ideal avocado-growing conditions, featuring rich volcanic soils, ample rainfall, and moderate temperatures foster strong growth and high-quality fruit. The country's diverse altitude range allows for year-round cultivation, ensuring a consistent supply. These optimal growing conditions, coupled with its robust agricultural community, export infrastructure and geographical proximity to high-demand markets, position Kenya as a premier avocado producer on the international market.
