The global nutrition company aims to connect regional demand with its worldwide origination network.
ADM, a global leader in nutrition and agricultural supply chain solutions, has opened a new destination marketing office in Nairobi, Kenya. The company stated this move reinforces its commitment to serving customers across East Africa through its global supply chain network.
Kenya is recognized as a key trade hub for food and feed ingredients, and the Nairobi office will offer direct access to ADM’s portfolio of food ingredients, feedstuffs, and animal nutrition solutions. Patrick Heijbroek, Vice President, Global Trade and Head of Origination, EMEA, noted that East Africa represents a high-growth market with over 500 million people and rising demand for quality ingredients.
The office will focus on market intelligence, local merchandising, storage, and distribution services. This expansion builds on ADM’s decade-long presence in Kenya and complements existing investments including human nutrition innovation laboratories in Nairobi and a distribution hub in Nigeria. In 2025, ADM's destination marketing volume reached nearly 31 million metric tons.
