Executive Summary

Blessed Harvest Farm is a small poultry and emerging livestock farming enterprise based in Murang’a County, Kenya. The farm was started in 2024 and focuses on poultry production, hatching and sale of day-old chicks, with plans to expand into dairy livestock. The farm currently operates on approximately one acre and has an existing poultry flock and a 900-egg-capacity incubator. The business has developed practical experience in poultry production, chick hatching, record keeping and customer sales. We are seeking investment to increase poultry production through an additional incubator, improved poultry housing and equipment, feed and water systems, backup power, and biosecurity improvements. Part of the investment will support the addition of dairy livestock. The goal is to build a sustainable agricultural enterprise that increases production, creates income and employment opportunities, and supplies quality poultry products and chicks to farmers in the local community. Seeking KSh 600,000 growth investment to expand poultry production, acquire a larger incubator, improve housing and water systems, add dairy livestock and strengthen working capital. Open to a structured profit-sharing investment without permanent transfer of ownership. Blessed Harvest Farm is led by a committed woman farmer with hands-on experience in poultry production, chick hatching, farm management, sales, and record keeping. The farm was started in 2024 and has grown through practical learning, customer relationships, and reinvestment. The founder currently manages poultry production and an incubator operation, while also growing crops on the farm. She oversees daily operations, sourcing, production, sales, financial records, and customer relationships. The team is currently founder-led, with plans to create employment and bring in additional support as the farm expands. The founder’s goal is to build Blessed Harvest Farm into a sustainable, commercially viable agribusiness that grows physically, financially, and creates opportunities within the local community. Blessed Harvest Farm is an early-stage but operational agribusiness generating income through poultry production and the sale of day-old chicks. The farm has established a growing customer base and is gradually increasing its poultry capacity. Revenue generated from sales is currently being reinvested into feed, breeding stock, incubation and farm operations, which limits the amount available as surplus cash. The business has demonstrated commercial potential, but its growth is currently constrained by limited working capital and production capacity. The farm is seeking investment to increase incubation capacity, strengthen poultry housing and equipment, improve reliable power and water supply, and expand livestock production. With increased capacity, the farm expects to increase production volumes, sales revenue and profitability. Blessed Harvest Farm operates in Kenya's smallholder agriculture and poultry market, serving farmers and households that require quality poultry and day-old chicks. Poultry farming is widely practiced by smallholder farmers because it provides opportunities for regular income and household food production. The farm is based in Murang'a County and serves customers within the surrounding local farming community. Its initial focus is on supplying day-old chicks while building its own breeding capacity and customer base. There is an opportunity to grow by increasing hatchery capacity, improving reliability of supply and expanding the customer base to more farmers in Murang'a and neighbouring areas. The business also plans to diversify into dairy livestock and other agricultural activities as its capital base grows, creating multiple income streams while remaining focused on sustainable smallholder agribusiness.
