Meet Tabitha Karanja, Founder And CEO Of Keroche Breweries Limited

Tabitha Karanja, MBS founder and CEO of Keroche Breweries Limited.

The first alcoholic beverage producer to be wholly owned and operated by an indigenous Kenyan – and, a woman‼️

Her inspirational story is one of a woman who started small in business but dreamed big, and because of her determination and perseverance emerged as one of the most successful women entrepreneurs in Kenya and a true force to be reckoned with in the beer brewing industry in Africa.

She is one of Kenya’s leading entrepreneurs, a remarkable trailblazer and an example of a woman made good against all the odds

Tabitha chose to venture where none before her had dared. She took on an 87-year-old business monopoly and entered an industry with a deeply entrenched male gender stereotype.

Tabitha broke the mould to become Kenya’s first home-grown beer and alcoholic drink manufacturer. Today, her company’s state-of-the-art production facility is targeting 20% of the Kenyan market.

For her enormous contribution in liberalizing the liqour market in Kenya, Tabitha was honored by President Mwai Kibaki in 2010 with a most significant Kenyan accolade – the Moran of the Order of the Burning Spear (M.B.S.) Award
