About Arabuko

Arabuko Limited is a fresh produce aggregation and market access company connecting smallholder farmers across East Africa to reliable markets. Founded in 2016, the company sources and supplies fresh produce to institutions, businesses and households, while expanding its horticultural export operations. With a network of over 5,000 farmers across Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, Arabuko promotes food security, reliable supply chains and inclusive economic opportunities, particularly for young women.

Suggested project & deliverables

Arabuko’s project focuses on establishing a commercially viable fresh-cut and processed potato business while creating opportunities for young women across its value chain. Although the company has an established fresh produce supply business serving institutional and corporate buyers, its new agro-processing venture faces uncertainty around market demand, customer acquisition and commercial sustainability. Arabuko seeks support from the S-Bize programme to identify high-potential buyers and distribution channels, assess market requirements, and develop a profitable sourcing, pricing and operating model. The project will also explore opportunities for young women to participate meaningfully in production, aggregation, processing and distribution, strengthening both business growth and inclusive economic impact.
