INKOMOKO LOCATIONS

Nairobi hosts Inkomoko’s Kenya headquarters, with a team of staff from across the country. The Nairobi office provides support to our field offices, which work with nearly 7,000 entrepreneurs in 2022.

  • Kakuma, Kalobeyei & Turkana – In northwestern Kenya, Inkomoko serves over 4000 refugees and host community entrepreneurs each year.
  • Garissa & Dadaab – We now serve more than 400 entrepreneurs in Garissa County, and building on this success, Inkomoko expand into Dadaab, where we work with 1600. Recent market fires in Dadaab have spurred Inkomoko to pilot micro-insurance products.

  • Eldoret – As part of Inkomoko’s strategy to create market linkages, Eldoret is the newest Inkomoko site in Kenya. As the fastest-growing town in Kenya, Inkomoko will serve 50 SMEs this year, commencing in October 2022. Check our job page to join our Eldoret team.
