Established in 2007<\/strong>, Kibos Sugar and Allied Industries Ltd<\/span> is one of Kenya\u2019s leading integrated sugar manufacturers<\/strong>, strategically located in Kibos, Kisumu County. The company commissioned a modern 1,650 TCD<\/strong> (Tonnes of Cane per Day) Greenfield<\/strong> sugar factory alongside a 3MW co-generation power plant<\/strong>, marking the beginning of a transformative journey in the region\u2019s agro-industrial sector.<\/p>

Driven by continuous growth and innovation, KSAIL expanded its crushing capacity to 3,500 TCD<\/strong> within just five years of operation and increased its co-generation capacity from 3MW to 18MW<\/strong>. This major expansion was successfully commissioned in December 2014, reinforcing the company\u2019s commitment to operational excellence and sustainable industrial development.<\/p>

Today, KSAIL operates a nucleus estate<\/strong> spanning over 4,000 acres<\/strong> and works closely with a strong network of out-growers cultivating sugarcane<\/strong> across Kisumu, Kakamega, Kericho, and Nandi counties.<\/strong> As of December 2022, the total area under cane cultivation<\/strong> stood at approximately 57,451 hectares<\/strong>, supporting thousands of farmers and livelihoods across the region.<\/p>

Over the years, KSAIL has evolved into a diversified industrial group under the umbrella of the Chatthe Group<\/strong>, with investments in sugar manufacturing<\/strong>, power generation<\/strong>, packaging, distillation<\/strong>, refining<\/strong>, and fertilizer production.<\/strong><\/p>
