Laikipia-Based Livestock Business Expands into Nyeri Feedlot Market
What happened
A livestock business began in 2018 as part of the Hongera Mama maternal health programme in Laikipia North Sub-County. The programme involved the raising of female goats to support the livelihoods of participating women. The venture eventually grew into a company that operates in a feedlot setting, supplying butchers in Nyeri.

Why it matters
The business operates in an intensive livestock-finishing unit, or feedlot. This model allows for better control of animal health and predictable meat quality. The company's operations contribute to the regional agricultural economy of Laikipia and Nyeri.
