Farmer impact
From Smallholder Farms to Better Food
Every product starts in the field. Through COPMAS, our Commodity Production and Marketing System, Sayari Foods works with more than 10,000 contracted smallholder women and youth farmers to plan production, aggregate harvests and connect them to a reliable buyer.
The model coordinates collective production, input sourcing and financing, mechanisation and instant payment, so quality and quantity can be planned rather than hoped for.

Our story
Sixteen Years of Moving Up the Value Chain
Smart Logistics Solution was established in 2009 by Rose Mutuku, initially focusing on sorghum aggregation and marketing before expanding into food staples, pulses, oilseeds and value-added food products.
From regional commodity trade the company moved into export, then into processing, innovating technologies that deliver tasty products with enhanced nutritional value. Today it targets low-income consumers and institutional markets: women food hawkers, small food kiosks, retail outlets, minimarts, schools and factories.
