Beryle Ochieng
Director of Sales and Marketing, Poultry and Allied Ltd.
Beryle Ochieng is a serial entrepreneur who is passionate about creating economic opportunity. She began her journey by working with SMEs to find new opportunities to grow through business development consultancy and support. Notably, she guided the market entry of the first consumer-focused quail breeder launch in Kenya, which was so successful that it led to what is now colloquially called “quailonomics”: the multimillion-dollar quail egg boom and subsequent bust. She later worked with multinationals like Unilever and Nestlé, helping them find new opportunities through market development and entry across sub-Saharan Africa.
In 2016, Ochieng saw an opportunity to help subsistence farmers in Western Kenya, the country’s poultry-rearing capital, turn their subsistence and passion farming into sustainable businesses. She convinced her family to start Poultry and Allied Limited, and they have since helped thousands of farmers realize their potential by preparing and equipping them for commercial farming.
Ochieng is extremely passionate about connecting people to opportunity, especially those who may be locked out by circumstance. She also works with professionals to connect them with new career opportunities in her other company, Angled North Limited. She is an impassioned advocate of sustainable farming and nutrition.
