Capwell Industries Limited

Capwell Industries Limited entered the food market 20 years ago by purchasing a maize milling facility, and since then, the company has expanded. The company recently erected a new 250 tonnes per day wheat mill and released Kenya's first cereal beverage drink as part of a new push to become a food and beverage company.

One of Kenya's most varied food processing businesses is Capwell Industries Ltd (CIL). Since it began in 1999 as a maize miller, the company has set trends in the Kenyan market and is soon to focus on new goods and new markets.

The family's origins in Kenya go back more than a century, with the relocation of the company founder's family from India to Kenya.

The company's chairman, Dalichand Shah, got his start in the business in 1962 when he joined his brothers in the bakery business. He worked there until 1996 before starting the Capwell Group in 1999, which has its headquarters in the industrial town of Thika, about 45 kilometers from Nairobi.

In 1999, CIL installed a 240-ton-per-day (TPD) plant for maize milling. Four years later, in 2003, the company expanded into rice milling, followed by porridge flour and pulses product lines in 2007.

Our installed maize milling capacity has increased to nearly 400 tonnes per day (TPD) over time. Our rice milling capacity is currently 100 TPD, our porridge flour milling capacity is 60 TPD, and our pulses milling capacity is 100 TPD, as explained by CEO Rajan Shah.

The company owns and operates two maize milling plants, one with 270 TPD and one with 120 TPD that it acquired from a nearby miller. For its product portfolio, it has made significant investments in cutting-edge, technologically advanced milling systems and superior packaging machines.
