Makueni Macadamia Summit 2026

Kenya has established itself as the 3rd largest producer of macadamia nuts globally, with a 13% market share, translating to 7,750 tonnes on a processed kernel basis. The macadamia sector has become a crucial cash crop for foreign exchange earnings, significantly contributing to economic development, employment creation, and improved farmer and household incomes.

Demand for macadamias worldwide is increasing, particularly in confectionery and bakery industries. In 2022, Kenya produced 41,500T of nut-in-shell and this is forecast to increase to 63,000T by 2027. Makueni County has shown strong potential, with approximately 130.9 hectares under macadamia cultivation.

It is against this backdrop that Sergeantsville Limited, Makueni County Government, and Macadamia Nut Processors of Kenya (MACNUT) are organizing the premier event for the macadamia industry. The summit will take place in Kikima, Mbooni on 27th March 2026, bringing together professionals, researchers, and innovators.

Globally, the macadamia market is expanding rapidly, with demand for healthy, traceable, and sustainably sourced nuts projected to grow at over 10% annually. This creates significant opportunities for Kenyan producers, investors, and innovators.
