My parents were not able to educate me so I became a farmer. Ever since I started working with Kibos, I have recieved my payment on time and enjoyed their services. I get a return of 85% return on investment which has gotten from where I was up to where I am now. The building of weighbridges closer to us has also increased income because of reduced transport costs.

JOSEPH KIPLAGAT KOGO, LARGESCALE FARMER CHEMELIL

The coming of Kibos Sugar and Allied Industries Limited to my area has helped us. Many farmers are happy because they are now able to take their children to school because their payment comes on time. We thank you and pray for you that you will continue to help by extending more technical support like access to fertilizer in future.

WILBERFORCE MUSUNGU, LARGESCALE FARMER SHINAMWELI

I applause Kibos Sugar and Allied Industries Limited for the excellent work. I don't sleep hungry anymore because I get money in two weeks and I feel good about it. I now want you to build a big factory near my area. I am happy and so are all the old and young men and even the widows who bring their cane to this facility.

JOHN NAMAI, FARMER BUCHENYA

Opening of the Awasi yard has encouraged farmers to go back to cane farming because of prompt payment. Increased agricultural activity of cane has benefitted the whole community by employing cane cutters, loaders and also transporters besides farmers. Prompt payment by Kibos Sugar and Allied Industries has enabled the community in general to meet their social obligations.

RICHARD OMONDI, TRANSPORTER AND FARMER AWASI

We are happy with the opening of the weighbridge in this area. We no-longer sit idle because we now cook for the people bringing cane to this facility. We are therefore earning money to take care of our children. We are happy with the opportunity Kibos Sugar and Allied Limited has presented to us.
