About This Product

Grown at altitudes between 1,600 and 2,200 metres above sea level in Kenya's fertile highland zones, this product benefits from rich volcanic soils, consistent rainfall, and cool temperatures that produce exceptional flavour, colour, and shelf life.

Every batch is grown under our GlobalG.A.P-certified protocol โ€” from the seed variety selected through to the post-harvest handling. Farmers on the Highland Brands network are visited weekly by a certified agronomist, and all inputs are sourced from our approved, residue-tested supplier list.

Post-harvest, produce is collected within hours of picking, pre-cooled at our pack-houses, graded to specification, and packed to buyer requirements before being dispatched on temperature-controlled vehicles to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport or Mombasa Port.
