Tengeneza Na Somo

Happy Madaraka Day from the Tengeneza na Somo Production Hub!

True independence is built in the spaces where we create, manufacture, and add value to our own local resources. Today, our hub is closed as we celebrate the spirit of self-reliance that drives every local maker and entrepreneur in Kenya.

Enjoy the holiday, and let's get back to building tomorrow! 🛠️🌱
