Below is what you need to know about Muthokinju,their products,branches,the owner and contacts.
Company Profile
Muthokinju was established in 2004 and became a Limited Liability Company (LTD) ten years later. The company opened a second and third location in 2013 after nearly another ten years had passed.
The company opened a new branch in each of the years 2014, 2015, and 2016, as well as two in 2019, four in 2020, and two in 2021. However, Muthokinju’s expansion took off quickly. The company employs around 150 people across 14 branches.
In September 2021, Muthokinju Paints received ISO 9001:2015 certification in a lavish ceremony that was attended by business executives, clients, partners, employees, and members of the general public. An organization seeking an ISO 9001:2015 certification must demonstrate its capacity to deliver goods that satisfy customers’ needs and abide by regulations, according to ISO, the standards organization.
Founders
The name of the organization’s co-founders, Susan Muthoni (MUTHO), Kimani (KI), and Barnabas Njuguna (NJU), inspired the acronym Muthokinju. The pair launched their hardware company after running a restaurant at Kenyatta Market, one of the busiest markets in the country.
Under their direction, the paints business expanded from a small hardware store with a little selection to a national distributor.
The founders of Muthokinju have ceded control of the company’s management to the following generation, nevertheless. While their daughter Sarafina Njatha now serves as the Operations Director, their son Benjamin Kimani now serves as the Managing Director and CEO. After graduating from college, Kimani joined Muthokinju in 2011 and quickly learned the craft before advancing to his current position.
James Kabugi, the head of logistics, Gerald Macharia, the head of sales, and Hatim Sheraz, the chief financial officer (CFO), are other members of the Muthokinju executive team. Due to the orderly transfer of ownership, Muthokinju was spared the ownership disputes that eventually cause many family-run businesses in Kenya to fail.
