Kenyans make more space and hold more time for each other. Nothing describes this sense of space and pace better than the common Kenyan proverb Haraka Haraka Haina Baraka. Translation: to hurry has no blessings.

2023-2024 Ajiri Impact Report

This year gave them more spaces and more programs to experience joy and silliness and the freedom to let go. It is hard to quantify in an Impact Report what that exactly means. But we can tell you what it looks like. It looks like greeting every outing with enthusiasm...

Everything Is Handmade

At Ajiri, our "handmade" is our pride. We don't want you to turn away, we want you to see what we see—the strong and talented and hopeful people behind our product. This tea is so smooth because it was handpicked. Sure, Kenyan tea is largely exported. But it is also enjoyed at home, commonly made over an open flame in a large sufria (pot), where fresh milk and lots of sugar are added.
