About

Our Story...



We’re Kuishi Health Foods..- a small but mighty avocado oil company based in Kericho, Kenya.
We're working towards turning our local avocados into high-quality crude oil for export by 2026, but our real passion is doing business the right way: using renewable energy, turning waste into fuel, and supporting small farmers (especially women and youth) every step of the way.
Kuishi means "to live" in Kiswahili. To us, it means living in harmony with the land, with each other, and with a shared vision for a more sustainable world.
