Our journey

Inspired by nature as a trusted source of nutrition, Brookside Dairy was born in 1993. At a glance you can see these values captured in our logo: the brook, blue skies, green pastures and. the freshness of nature. Our Brookside vision was to refresh the world of milk in Kenya with a new appreciation for pure healthy delicious milk from farm to table.

From humble beginnings at Sukari farm, Ruiru, we started with only 33 people and an initial capacity of 5000 litres of milk per day. We pursued our dream to bring wholesome goodness of pure farm fresh dairy products to every Kenyan home. With growing customer trust, not only did the demand grow but also our passion to provide and keep innovating healthy and nutritious products for the whole family.

Brookside continues to elevate the dairy industry and has created the largest farmer network in East Africa. To increase the yield as well as milk quality, Brookside offers training and support on modern-day farming and dairy production. We care about growth for our farmers. We care about health for families, our communities and we care for the environment. Today, from small beginnings, we have proudly grown to serve our valuable customers healthy and nutritious dairy products in Kenya, Africa and beyond.
