With the onset of margin depletion in the trading business & less profitability, the Company restructured its entire Business plan for sustainable business growth from 2001. More focus was given on Distribution & Development of its own Branded Products.

From Our Directors

My dream was to be like my grandfather, who was a well-respected and accomplished businessman. He was a formidable man who touched countless hearts through his humanitarian efforts and is my inspiration to build this company in the footprints of his legacy.

My family’s 100-year legacy has fabricated a remarkable number of businesses such as the first Graphite Mine in East Africa, City Breweries, and a lucrative run in the fuel/petroleum industry.

Mjengo Limited is an organisation that believes in Quality without compromise, and over the last few years we have consistently developed a range of unique and innovative products that have astounded many of our competitors and stakeholders.

Malbros aims to operate and apply the best practices while being considerate of our environment. Our prospect as an organisation is to be insightful. We have a resilient portfolio of brands that each have versatile capabilities.

To successfully move forward, we are working on new opportunities to evolve our brands to provide a multinational experience across Africa.

We believe that it is only prudent for us to achieve sustainable growth by not only focusing as a profit-oriented company, but also by continuing to provide value and experiences for all our social stakeholders.
