Start Mini-Poultry Feed Production In Kenya

Starting a mini-poultry feed production business in Kenya can be a lucrative and rewarding venture. Here are some steps to follow when setting up a mini-poultry feed production business in Kenya:

  1. Conduct market research: It is important to understand the demand for poultry feed in your area and the competition you will face. Conduct market research to determine the size of the market and the types of feed that are in demand.
  2. Develop a business plan: A business plan will help you define your business goals, identify your target market, and outline the steps you will take to achieve your objectives. It will also help you secure financing if you need it.
  3. Obtain necessary licenses and permits: In Kenya, you will need to obtain a business license and a permit to operate a feed mill. You may also need to register with the Kenya Bureau of Standards if you plan to sell your feed commercially.
  4. Choose a location: Choose a location for your feed mill that is easily accessible to your target market and has access to electricity, water, and transportation.
  5. Purchase equipment: You will need to purchase equipment to grind and mix the ingredients for your feed. This may include a feed grinder, feed mixer, and storage bins.
  6. Source ingredients: Determine the ingredients you will need for your feed and source them from reliable suppliers. You may need to purchase grains, such as corn and soybeans, as well as additives like vitamins and minerals.
  7. Promote your business: Once you are up and running, promote your business to potential customers through marketing and advertising efforts. You may also want to consider joining local trade organizations or joining a local poultry farmers association.

By following these steps, you can set up a successful mini-poultry feed production business in Kenya.
