How to find market in Kenya for your produce

1. Research before planting – You need to
research about the market demand before
planting any crop in your farm.

If the demand is low then you need to change your business plan and move to the next crop. The demand of a product is important because it also affects the selling price.

2. Apply for tenders – Many schools and
organizations offer tenders for the supply of
agricultural produce. 

Contact your nearest school
and ask if they have any tenders for supply that is
open.


3.Transport – The price for maize in Eldoret is
different from Nairobi and Nakulru therefore find
a means of transporting your produce to another
town, city or country for selling. 

If you do not own a lorry or pickup truck you can hire one but this
will be a little expensive depending on the distance
you are transporting.

4. Create your own market – If you really
believe your product is worth it and necessary,
then you can go ahead and create your own
market. 

Try and demonstrate to your community
the importance of your product and how it will
benefit them. Identify a problem they are facing
and use your product as the solution. 

If you are rearing Rabbits in Kenya you can start by
introducing Rabbit eating slowly by making samosas
made from Rabbit meat,you will be surprised how
people will love it and ask for more!
