We have invested heavily in the growth and development of our small-scale farmers in the last 15 years from whom we currently receive 95 percent of our milk deliveries

We currently partner with over 100,000 small-scale dairy farmers with a network that span across 6 of Kenya's 8 provinces. Brookside farmers enjoy numerous benefits from our Milk Procurement and Extension Services (MPE) support program that guarantees them the following;-

• Prompt payment
• Guaranteed market for their milk;
• Empowerment through education;- Regular dairy training courses to help them maximize their milk production. The climax of the training is the biennial Brookside Livestock Breeders Show & Sale where both small and large scale farmers interact to share experiences, and market their breed to the world. The Show draws international participation and the 2009 event will be held in June at the ASK Jamhuri Park.
• Loan Facilities- We guarantee loans at Equity Bank, the Kenya Commercial Bank and the Cooperative Bank which farmers can borrow and expand their businesses;
• Grassroots milk collection network;- Our facilities are close to farmers saving them transport costs and losses from wastages during delivery.
• Credit Facilities;- We offer farmers farm inputs and animal feeds on credit which we deliver to them to enable them improve the quality of their animals.
• Support for Cooperatives;- We assist farmers set up cooperative societies to purchase milk cooling facilities in order to minimize wastage.
