Product Overview

Fresh Pepper — including Hot Chillies and Sweet Capsicum — is one of Kenya’s fastest-growing horticultural exports, loved for its vibrant color, bold flavor, and superior shelf life.
At Pomona Exporters Limited, we grow and source high-quality peppers and chillies from trusted farms in Athi River, Machakos, Kirinyaga, and Naivasha, regions known for their rich soils, warm climate, and sustainable cultivation practices.

Our range includes both hot and sweet pepper varieties, carefully handpicked at peak maturity for maximum freshness and color. The fruits are graded, washed, and cooled immediately after harvest, then packed in ventilated export cartons to maintain optimal condition throughout transport.

Pomona supplies premium Bird’s Eye Chillies, Cayenne, and Mixed Capsicum (Red, Yellow, Green) to the Netherlands, Europe, the Middle East, and Russia, meeting international market standards for appearance, taste, and safety.
