Rooted in Kenya. Trusted across the world.
Equator Crest Exporters Limited has been bridging Kenyan farmers and global importers since 2014 — built on integrity, quality and reliability.
A decade of building reliable export partnerships
What began as a small avocado consolidation operation in 2014 has grown into a multi-product agricultural export company shipping to 20+ countries. Throughout that growth, one thing has stayed constant: every container leaves our warehouse only after passing the same QC bar we set on day one.
Today we work directly with over 300 partner farms across Kenya's prime growing regions, and we handle every stage of the export chain in-house — sourcing, grading, packaging, documentation and shipping.
A compact team built for sourcing, quality and logistics
Our daily work is grounded in clear communication, careful QC and dependable execution for every buyer.

A unique combination of altitude, climate & expertise
Kenya's high-altitude growing regions — the Aberdares, Mt Kenya slopes, Kericho highlands and Nyeri — produce some of the world's most flavourful tea and coffee, and Hass avocados with industry-leading oil content. Generations of farming expertise combined with modern agronomy give buyers consistent, high-quality lots.
- Equatorial sunlight + altitude = denser flavour profiles
- Two avocado harvest windows extending supply nine months a year
- Direct sea route via Mombasa to Europe, Middle East, Asia
- Strong regulatory framework (KEPHIS, KEBS, HCDA)
Quality you can verify
Our partner network and in-house operations are certified to international standards required by the most demanding buyers.
