Founder at REJESHA AGRIHUB

Private sector (MSME)

Get in touch

I recently founded the Rejesha AgriHub focusing on restoring value back to the food systems. We are focusing on providing end to end solutions in the pulses value chains (specifically beans) ranging from access to seed, trade and value addition. I intend to influence the behavior of farmers to adopt certified beans seed to improve productivity and consumers to consume nutritious beans.

I am currently focusing on building the Rejesha AgriHub Enterprise, an enterprise I recently founded out of passion to provide solutions in the beans value chain. Before founding Rejesha AgriHub, Davine has worked with different organizations providing services for different stakeholders in the Agricultural Value Chains. She worked at Spiceworld Ltd as the Head of Agribusiness and Sustainability where I led initiatives on Sustainability and Own farming. While working with Consumers International, I drove advocacy efforts for ensuring fair food pricing in Kenya, Ghana and Nigeria. While at Equity Bank as a Grains and Oil Seeds Specialist, I was responsible for the development of financing solutions and facilitating the uptake of these solutions by the grains sector stakeholders, and at Eastern Africa Grain Council, I led stakeholder engagement and access to services and finance. I am a holder of a master's degree in strategic management from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology and a bachelor’s degree in Agribusiness Management from Egerton University in Kenya.
