Best Tropical Fruits Limited

Kenya

About Company

Best Tropical Fruits Limited, (BTF), a company registered in Kenya, was established to trade and process soft tree fruits (Mango, Avocado, Passion Fruit etc.), as over 40% of these highly perishable tropical tree fruits never reach market and go to waste. BTF is currently working closely with 1,500 farmers to improve the quality of their fruit so that there is less loss and higher sale potential thus improving farmer income and company profitability. BTF is also turning its attention to processing fruit waste into high value commodities for which there is strong demand in the cosmetic and food ingredients sectors.
