Meet The Eggpreneurs Of Kenya

Women in remote Kenyan communities have historically been poor, but that is changing in a big way. Eggpreneur, a social enterprise based out of Nairobi, has helped transform their lives by providing them with training and support to establish sustainable egg farming ventures.

Background of Eggpreneur

In Kenya, there is a growing movement of “eggpreneurs” – young people who are using egg farming as a way to generate income and create positive change in their communities.

Egg farming is a relatively low-cost business venture, and eggs are in high demand due to their nutritional value. This makes egg farming an attractive option for young entrepreneurs looking to make a difference in their communities.

Eggpreneurs are using their businesses to create jobs, empower women, and improve food security in their communities. They are also working to break down barriers to entry into the poultry industry, making it more accessible for small-scale farmers.

The eggpreneur movement is gaining momentum in Kenya and is having a positive impact on the lives of many people. These young entrepreneurs are showing that egg farming can be a force for good, and are paving the way for a bright future for Kenya’s poultry industry.

If you’re an entrepreneur, chances are you’ve heard of the term “Eggpreneur.” But what does it mean?

An Eggpreneur is an entrepreneur who is passionate about eggs. They are dedicated to providing high-quality, nutritious eggs to their community and beyond.

Eggpreneurs are committed to making a difference in the lives of those around them. They use their business to create jobs and empower others. By providing quality eggs, they are improving the health of their community and making a positive impact on the world.

Why egg farming?

Egg farming is a viable and sustainable business model in Kenya. Small-scale farmers can produce eggs commercially, and larger-scale operations are also possible. The market for eggs is growing, as more Kenyans are becoming aware of the nutritional value of eggs and the potential health benefits of consuming them regularly.

Eggs are an excellent source of protein, and they contain all of the essential amino acids that our bodies need to function properly. They are also a good source of several vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin B12, iron, and zinc. Eggs can be part of a healthy diet for people of all ages, and they are especially important for growing children and pregnant women.

There are several reasons why egg farming is a good business opportunity in Kenya. First, there is a growing demand for eggs due to the increasing awareness of their nutritional value. Second, eggs are relatively inexpensive to produce, making them affordable for many Kenyan families. Third, egg farmers can sell their eggs directly to consumers or through wholesalers and retailers. Finally, egg farming provides farmers with an opportunity to diversify their income sources and reduce their reliance on traditional crops such as maize and wheat.

How to Become an Eggpreneur

There are many ways to become an eggpreneur in Kenya. The first step is to find a reputable source of eggs. There are many small-scale farmers who sell eggs in the market, so it is important to ask around and find a farmer who has a good reputation. Once you have found a source of eggs, you need to determine how many you want to sell. It is important to start small so that you can learn the business and perfect your technique.

The next step is to set up a stall in the market. This can be done by renting a space or setting up a table. It is important to have a sign that clearly states your prices and the types of eggs you are selling. You will also need some storage containers for the eggs, as well as some boxes or bags for packaging them up for customers.

Once your stall is set up, start promoting your business! let people know where you are located and what type of eggs you are selling. You can hand out flyers or business cards, or even post ads on online classifieds websites. The more people know about your business, the more likely they are to buy from you.

The final step is to price your eggs appropriately. Make sure that your prices are competitive with other sellers in the market, but also make sure that you are making a profit! If you price your eggs too low, you will not make any money, but if you price them too high, customers
