10 years in poultry. One platform to change it all.
After 4 years working with Aga Khan Hospital, our Co-Founder quit in 2015 to venture into poultry farming. That boots-on-the-ground experience led to working with over 10,000 poultry farmers in East Africa, end to end across the poultry value chain, for over 10 years, building a million-dollar company that went on to become one of the biggest poultry companies in Western Kenya: Chicken Basket Ltd.
Along the way, he coined "Chomapreneurship," a concept that trained over 8,000 youth in street food vending, providing over 3,000 grills and business starter packages, supported by GIZ, FAO, USAID, MEDA, and the National Government.
In 2023, Abisai Nandi decided to pivot to Agtech, having seen first-hand the challenges farmers faced every day. He put his 10 years of experience toward something bigger: a platform that would change poultry farming completely across Africa. With GIZ approving the concept note, ePoultry was born.
In that first year, over 2,000 poultry farmers were engaged and 20 IoT hardware units were tested, generating over $40,000 in revenue with the pilot phase fully funded by GIZ. From there, a team of engineers was assembled, focused on hardware research and development, and EPOULTRY LTD was launched.
Today, ePoultry integrates 10+ productivity tools including record keeping, disease detection, extension services, a marketplace, and solar- and AI-powered hardware into one platform for smallholder poultry farmers in Africa.

Farm Management
Digital poultry records, flock analytics, and production planning unlock more productive and profitable farms across Kenya and East Africa.
Financing
Input credit and working capital through the platform, reducing cash-flow constraints for smallholder poultry farmers.
Hardware Equipment
Smart solar-powered cameras, sirens, and IoT sensors monitor temperature, feed, water, and bird activity, creating data-driven farm insights and real-time security.
Extension and Advisory
Certified experts provide on-farm visits, veterinary advice, and customer support across Kenya's poultry network.
From startup to movement
Six years of building alongside Kenya's poultry farmers, every milestone shaped by the people we serve.
The Spark
e-Poultry was founded after our founders spent months visiting smallholder poultry farmers across Western Kenya and witnessing the same pattern: talented, hardworking farmers struggling without data, capital, or reliable market access.
First Farmers Onboarded
Launched across Nairobi, Nakuru, and Western Kenya counties. Farmers began digitizing flock records, tracking mortality, and logging vaccine events for the first time. Extension officers were recruited to bridge the digital gap.
Farm Financing Goes Live
Introduced the farm financing module. Farmers could now access working capital for day-old chicks, feeds, and equipment with repayment tied to their harvest cycle.
Marketplace and Hardware
Launched the buy and sell marketplace, connecting farmers directly with verified off-takers. Deployed the first IoT hardware devices: smart solar cameras and sirens giving farmers real-time farm security and monitoring.
1,000 Farmers and Growing
Reached 1,000+ active farmer accounts across 15 counties. Over 500,000 chickens transacted through the platform. 50+ extension officers onboarded and deployed across key poultry counties.
East Africa Expansion
Scaling beyond Kenya to reach smallholder farmers across East Africa. Groups and Cooperatives launched on the web portal. Hardware equipment programme expanded with 20+ smart devices deployed.
