KLY ELLYS Limited Turning Sugarcane Waste into Wealth: Bagasse to Board

We are converting Kenya’s sugarcane waste into high-quality fiberboards for construction and furniture. Every year, over 1.5 million tons of bagasse go to waste—yet demand for affordable boards keeps rising.

Our plant will produce over 600 boards a day, replacing expensive imports with a sustainable, local alternative. Backed by abundant raw material, strong margins, and market demand, this project offers a unique chance to invest in green manufacturing with both commercial and environmental returns.

We’re seeking KES 150 million (USD ~1M) to launch operations. Join us in building Africa’s future—one board at a time.
