With #FoodSecurityKenya, WIDU promotes micro and small businesses that produce food (e.g. farmers), process
food (e.g. bakeries), improve how efficient food is produced (e.g. suppliers of fertilizer), conserve food and reduce food waste or boost healthy and nutritious eating habits in any way.

  • Nutritional health
  • Reduction of food waste
  • IT and data for food security

Eligible Applicants

Micro and small businesses (up to 20 employees), start-ups and new business ideas.

Funding & Coaching:

  • Participating Entrepreneurs privately invest between Kshs 30,000 and Kshs 120,000. WIDU will multiply the investment by 2.5 – successful participants can receive a grant of up to Kshs 300,000 (the grant will not have to be paid back).
  • In addition, each entrepreneur receives individual coaching sessions conducted by a business expert.
