Agrohub Moi’s Bridge Park comes in to solve these and many more problems faced by the Rift Valley farmer.

Agrohub Moi’s Bridge Park has been designed to operates as a cluster of various companies that solely depend on agricultural produce from the region as input for their processing.
The park will be a place where the produce of the rural countryside will be brought in, stored (refrigerated), and value-added through processing. Packaging of both raw materials and processed food for consumer markets will also be done here and after that transported to of takers.
