The Journey Home
NYERI IS HOME
A personal connection. A lifelong responsibility.
Nyeri is more than a place on the map for Agnes Kagure. It is home — where she grew up, where the foundations of her character were laid, and where she was shaped as a mother, entrepreneur, business leader, and philanthropist who understands the value of hard work.
From the tea-growing landscapes of Othaya to the coffee communities of Mukurwe-ini, from Karatina’s commercial energy to the streets of Nyeri Town, hard work does not always translate into prosperity. A New Sunrise in Nyeri is a commitment to turn our county’s strengths into greater prosperity, better public services, and opportunities that reach every community.
