Panocal International Limited is a diversified and mechanized agribusiness that works together with nature or the environment. It was established as an agribusiness in 1996 and began trading in floriculture and seed maize production. The business is centered on two (2) family farms in Kitale, Kenya on the slopes of Mt Elgon (4300M), one of Africa’s highest mountains. The business operates from its two (2) farms, 685 hectares and 125 hectares, which stand at 1850m above sea level and have diversified over the years to include floriculture, maize and sugar cane plantations, avocados and forestry.
The floriculture and avocado business are entirely export businesses whilst the maize/sugarcane and forestry products are for the local markets with employment for all businesses running at approximately 600 to 900 staff depending on the time of year. Panocal’s main aims are to provide employment in a rural setting desperately in need of job creation, and in doing so also look after the environment of which the farms have set aside wetlands and forests of approximately 125 hectares
