Nine years ago, Matt Muthama owned only two goats, a gift from his uncle in Githunguri, Kiambu. Today, he is the co-founder of KEFT Farm in Wamasa, Kinango, Kwale County, a 600-acre enterprise running more than 3,000 goats and 600 breeding cattle, and selling animals as far as Tanzania, the Gambia and Zambia.

A breeding goat from the farm sells for an average of Sh15,000, with superior animals fetching considerably more depending on genetics, age and other traits.
