Kentaste is the largest and most popular brand of coconut products in Kenya (or anywhere in Africa actually), and we are proud of how we run our business.
Kentaste is like a family (we work together, play together, and some of us are even married!), and since our start in 2011 we have committed to enriching the lives of our farmers, our team members, and our loyal customers. We do this by building sustainable, enduring relationships and selling high quality, delicious, locally sourced products. Since our humble beginnings we have grown to over 120 permanent employees who make only the finest virgin coconut oil, coconut milk, coconut cream, desiccated coconut and coconut flour for our customers to enjoy in their cooking, and as part of their health and beauty routines.
Kenya is our home and no matter where we sell our awesome goods, our goal will always be to benefit the communities in which our products are sourced and manufactured.
Our modern factory is located in Ukunda, Kenya, just a short walk from the beautiful Diani beaches and the
majestic Indian Ocean. Every single one of our products is manufactured here by our team of 98% Kenyan staff because we believe in local opportunities for local people. That’s not all.
The Kenyan coast is also where we source all our coconuts, so when we say we are a local Kenyan company, we really mean it. In fact, 100% of our coconuts are sourced from within 100 miles of the factory, and 90% are sourced from within 40 miles.
