Over the past 17 years, Kilimo Trust has built a solid reputation as a reliable partner for sustainable market-led agricultural development in the East African region. With headquarters in Uganda, and affiliated subsidiaries in Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda, Kilimo Trust maintains a lean operations team, choosing to work through partnerships with local and regional actors for efficiency.

Kilimo Trust relies on the support of its funding partners and implementing partners (public and private), as well as the guidance of its Board of Trustees and the Management to realize the grand vision of a sustained and equitable wealth creation, food and nutrition security for smallholder farmers and other value chain actors. Our core values: Value for money, Partnerships, Teamwork, Empathy and Integrity are the bedrock of our operations.
