Direct investment opportunities for family offices, high-net-worth individuals, strategic investors, and impact-focused capital partners.

ForestFoods is currently raising USD 1 million through a blended investment structure designed to support the next phase of growth for the business.

 

We are seeking aligned investors who share our vision of building East Africa’s leading regenerative food and agroforestry platform.

Current Raise

Total Raise: USD 1,000,000

 

Minimum Investment: USD 50,000

Investment Structure

The blended raise consists of:

  • 20% participation in ForestFoods LLC

  • 80% participation in Taste the Forest – Shimba Hills

 

The structure is designed to provide investors with exposure to both the growth of the wider ForestFoods business and the development of long-term agroforestry assets.

Use of Funds

Capital raised will be used to:

 

  • Develop the Shimba Hills nucleus farm

  • Expand processing and value-addition capacity

  • Strengthen working capital

  • Scale outgrower partnerships

  • Improve logistics and market access

  • Continue strengthening operational systems and technology

The Shimba Hills project serves as ForestFoods’ coastal nucleus farm, training hub, and future processing centre.

 

The opportunity extends far beyond the privately owned nucleus farm itself. Shimba Hills provides the foundation for scaling regenerative agroforestry through surrounding landowners, community farms, and future smallholder partnerships across the wider landscape.

 

As ForestFoods expands its outgrower model, Shimba Hills has the potential to become one of the largest regenerative agroforestry hubs on the Kenyan coast.
