Local Greenz Market exists to make better food easier to access, understand and enjoy, while creating greater value for Kenyan ingredients and the people who produce them.
We do this by sourcing responsibly, making local ingredients easier to use, sharing practical food knowledge, supporting shorter supply chains and reducing unnecessary food waste.
Better food should work for everyone: the person growing it, the person buying it and the place we all call home.

We waste less good food
We restock regularly, manage produce carefully and find useful ways to give good food another life before it becomes waste.
A purpose is only worth the proof behind it
Every farm has a name
Eight partner farms, each one named with its county and what it grows. We visit and see the growing for ourselves rather than take a certificate on trust.

Formulas, sourcing visits, field notes and label scrutiny, run by a scientist before a product reaches a shelf. The journal is where that work gets written down.
