 HACO Industries Kenya Limited, through its leading homecare brands SoSoft and ACE, has partnered with Mama Fua App to conduct a training and empowerment session in Eldoret aimed at equipping cleaning and laundry professionals with practical skills to enhance service quality and create sustainable income opportunities.

The initiative is designed to support individuals working in the cleaning and laundry sector, popularly known as Mama Fua, by providing professional training on modern laundry techniques, effective homecare practices, and the proper use of cleaning and fabric care products.

Through the training programme, participants gained valuable knowledge and hands-on experience that will help them improve efficiency, deliver higher-quality services, and expand their earning potential.

Speaking on the initiative, HACO Industries Home Care Category Manager Joan Chege noted that the programme reflects the company’s broader commitment to empowering communities and strengthening local enterprise ecosystems.

“At HACO Industries, we recognize the important role that cleaning and laundry professionals play in households across Kenya. Through our partnership with Mama Fua and the support of our SoSoft and ACE brands, we aim to provide practical training and tools that empower these entrepreneurs to improve their services, grow their businesses, and increase their income opportunities,” Chege said.

The training, delivered by Cleaning School Kenya, a subsidiary of Mama Fua, also provided participants with insights on best practices in fabric care, stain removal, hygiene standards, and efficient cleaning solutions for housekeeping, safety, and workplace hygiene using HACO’s homecare products. Financial literacy was also incorporated to ensure sustainability beyond the training.

Mama Fua, a premier provider of high-quality cleaning and laundry services across Kenya, continues to champion professionalization within the sector by connecting trained service providers with households and businesses seeking reliable cleaning solutions.

A representative from Mama Fua, Stephine Nguta, emphasized that partnerships such as this play a critical role in improving livelihoods and elevating service standards within the cleaning industry.

“Empowering cleaning professionals with the right skills and tools not only improves the quality of services delivered to customers but also creates sustainable opportunities for individuals and families who rely on this sector for their livelihoods,” Nguta said.

The Eldoret training forms part of HACO Industries’ broader efforts to build stronger community partnerships and promote inclusive economic participation through skills development and entrepreneurship support. By combining product expertise with practical training, the programme aims to contribute to a more professional, empowered, and sustainable cleaning services sector in Kenya.

Green Gold Rush: UK-Funded Forum Links African Innovators with Investors to Build a Cleaner Future.

  Nairobi, Kenya, By George Mutua. The air in Nairobi was thick with more than just the usual buzz of a city on the move today. Inside a conference hall, it crackled with the electricity of ambition and the smell of a greener future. More than 150 of Africa’s brightest green manufacturing entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders gathered for the Pan-African Green Business Building (GBB) Forum , a high-stakes meeting designed to turn climate-positive ideas into booming, job-creating businesses. Funded by the UK government through its flagship Manufacturing Africa programme, the one-day event was a vibrant marketplace of innovation. Its mission was simple but audacious: to connect the capital with the continent's most promising green startups, unlocking what research suggests could be a $2-4 billion a year market by 2030, and creating over 200,000 jobs in the process. Nairobi was the natural home for this gathering. Fresh off its crown as the continent's top destination f...

KPC Foundation and eKitabu Forge a New Blueprint to Rescue Kenya’s Isolated Creatives.

  Rachel Gathoni, the Kenya Pipeline Company Managing Trustee and Foundation Manager Ngecha, Kiambu, Kenya, by George Mutua .  In the shadow of a bustling Nairobi that often races past its art, a quiet but determined revolution is taking root. At the Mlango Farm artistic community in Ngecha, a serene landscape of sustainable agriculture and deep creative history, the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) Foundation has launched the  Sanaa  initiative. This is not merely another corporate social responsibility event. Instead, it is a deliberate, structured attempt to diagnose and treat the chronic isolation and market fragmentation that have long plagued Kenya's writers, visual artists, and musicians. For one day, over fifty creatives, ranging from Gen Z digital poets to veteran painters who have been wielding brushes for forty years, sat elbow-to-elbow with corporate leaders. Their mission was brutally simple yet historically elusive:  to stop creating alone and start ...
