Our History

The concept of creating an online shopping platform originated in 2018, driven by the intention to revitalize an old open-air market in the Bibirioni Ward of Limuru Constituency, known as Gatunyu. This market served as a gathering place for small-scale farmers who came together on designated days to sell their excess agricultural products. However, it eventually ceased operations as many farmers opted to pursue larger opportunities at the Limuru Food Market, resulting in customers from Bibirioni Ward having to travel greater distances to purchase locally produced goods.

This inconvenience sparked the establishment of Keffys, initially branded as Gatunyu.co.ke. During the initial phases of development, it became evident that this issue was widespread throughout the country, prompting a shift in focus from solely addressing the needs of Bibirioni Ward to seeking a more comprehensive solution on a national scale.
