Keep IT Cool is a Kenyan food distribution and decentralised cold chain company.

Keep IT Cool designs the energy-optimised and self-regulate freezers to reduce post-harvest losses for East African white meat producers..

They utilise whichever power supply is available to reach the set temperature and then switch off until the temperature has dropped to a point where further cooling is required.

The freezers are powered by solar, battery or the grid.

Keep IT Cool focuses on the distribution of fish and poultry in Kenya.

The company makes money by placing a markup on the products that it currently has on the Markiti platform along with the subscription fees for the freezers.
