Company Summary

Farmers in Kenya have produce that world markets desire but the markets are inaccessible. Inagape bridges the gap by purchasing, dehydrating, and packaging the fruit into branded snack packs, which are sold in existing stores. Inagape’s coconut chip currently has no direct local competition, has great market potential in the local and global markets, and is already generating revenue and providing income to Kenyan coastal farmers.
