In September 2016, Meshack Mwau started East Meat Supplies Ltd, specialising in the production of pure indigenous chicken, beef, goat and lamb meat.

Initially, his main focus was to increase poultry production while working and empowering smallholder farmers within Makueni County.

His inspiration to venture into chicken meat dates back to his childhood days when he saw his mother provide them with food and pay school fees through rearing and selling kienyeji (indigenous) chicken and their eggs.
