Grace is a results-driven marketing and administration professional with over five years of hands-on experience in sales across the region, in both Kenya and Uganda. She combines strong organisational and administrative expertise with versatile social-media marketing skills to drive brand visibility, customer engagement and business growth. Able to manage multiple priorities seamlessly, she has successfully supported sales operations, coordinated administrative functions and executed digital marketing campaigns that strengthen the firm’s market presence in the region.

Fred designs and runs the firm’s training work — farmer field schools, staff capacity building and Good Agricultural Practice programmes covering both crops and livestock. Drawing on his international experience gained in Israel and local experience across the corporate sector and development partners, he translates technical recommendations into practical sessions that farm teams can be taught and assessed on, so that improved practices continue long after the adviser has left the farm.

Joshua is a veterinary para-professional with more than ten years in dairy and livestock production, gained at Githeha Farm in Ruiru, Nyaribo Farm in Nyeri, Thamuru Farm at the Riara Group of Schools, and Premier Food Limited, where his work included beekeeping. He works with growers running bees and livestock alongside a cropping enterprise — hive siting and colony management, herd health and husbandry, and the feed and housing decisions that sit behind both. He sets out what an enterprise needs season by season, so stock and hives are run to a standard rather than simply kept.
