Highland Brands, a pride of Kenyan agriculture, has been officially awarded the prestigious 2024 Export Excellence Award, marking a monumental milestone for the nation’s horticultural sector. Operating from Kenya’s fertile highland regions, the enterprise has consistently set industry benchmarks by delivering premium, pesticide-free produce that strictly adheres to rigorous global safety standards. This award recognizes Highland Brands’ unwavering commitment to ethical farming practices, exceptional post-harvest processing, and robust international distribution.
The key to Highland Brands’ success lies in its comprehensive integration of sustainable cultivation and modern cold-chain logistics. Sourcing directly from certified Kenyan farms, every consignment of crisp vegetables and fresh fruits undergoes rigorous testing and grading to earn ‘Pesticide Free’ and ‘Global Export’ certifications. By bridging the gap between smallholder precision and high-efficiency freight hubs—including seamless transit through Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and local maritime ports—Highland Brands guarantees that produce reaches overseas shelves at peak freshness.
Winning the 2024 Export Excellence Award highlights Highland Brands’ essential role in positioning Kenya as a global leader in high-value, safe agricultural exports. Guided by their brand identity, “We are more!”, the company continues to champion clean farming techniques, uplift local farming communities, and satisfy demanding international markets across Europe, the Middle East, and beyond. This accolade reinforces their mission to feed the world with uncompromised quality, directly rooted in Kenya’s rich soil.
