Capwell Industries has emerged as the best miller for pioneering fortification of its rice product in the Kenyan market.
The miller received the Innovation Award at the 2025 Kenya Millers Fortification Index (KMFI) Awards for its rice fortification efforts which it says has been key in pushing national nutrition agenda.
“This recognition builds on our legacy as the first miller to fortify maize flours within Kenya even before such fortification was made compulsory, reaffirming our commitment to enriching lives through nutrition and innovation,” the firm said.
Capwell was bagged the People Management Systems award for building right human capacity for fortification efforts, as well as Production & Continuous Improvement award and Public Engagement award.
