A Brief History
A canning Factory was created by Mr. Featherstone
in 1938. Mr. T.K. Patel took over the factory in
1978 and in 1981, there was a joint venture
agreement with a French company
SAUPIQUET to produce canned french beans for
the French market. In 1982,
Hortiequip Ltd, a subsidiary of NCF is
created to supply French Beans to the factory
through contracted farmers. In 1990 a new agreement
is signed with French company,
Bonduelle after they take over the vegetable
section of Saupiquet. in
1992, We invested in a concentration plant to
produce juices and concentrates for the Kenyan
Market. Between 1995 and 2000, we invested in a
freezing and dehydration plants to produce products
for the Kenyan & European Market, a new French beans
growing area is set up under
Hortiequip Ltd. we implemented HACCP (HACCP) systems and
trained our staff on the same and we later updated
these systems. in 2001, we invested in the freezing
line to produce frozen potato chips and later that
year we introduced a new brand
Golden Valley into the Kenyan market |
