    It was an honor to have @TwigaFoods awarded by the Kenya Revenue Authority today as the top paying Medium Tax Payer for the year 2022. From starting @TwigaFoods in 2013, having this honor 9 years later is truly a blessing.

    Today we launched our 3rd Party Fleet Marketplace. In partnership with NCBA & Isuzu E.A. members of the public can now invest as little as 10% of the value of the new vehicle, get financing and have it deployed with @TwigaFoods for a regular monthly income for the next 6 years!

    It was a true honor to return to Harvard Business School, not as a student, but, as a protagonist, sharing the @TwigaFoods case study with the MBA class of Prof. Shikhar Ghosh. I'm glad that Africa is being regonzed as a contributor to global academia.

    It was a great honor to host Amb. Meg Whitman at the @TwigaFoods Distribution Center in Tatu City. She's indeed a great supporter of the private sector and its role in development.
