Gum Arabic

At Chlorophyl Africa Limited, we pride ourselves on being a leading off-taker of high-quality gum arabic in Kenya. Sourced from the resilient Acacia senegal trees, our gum arabic is a key ingredient in various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

Our commitment goes beyond export; we are deeply involved in the sustainable harvesting and conservation of Acacia senegal, ensuring that this vital resource continues to benefit communities in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASAL) regions of Kenya.


  • Sustainable Gum Arabic Offtake. We work closely with local communities across Kenya, particularly in ASAL areas where Acacia senegal thrives. Our approach is built on fair trade principles, ensuring that local gum harvesters receive fair compensation for their hard work. .

  • From Kenya to the World. By off-taking gum arabic for export, we not only create market access for rural communities but also contribute to Kenya’s economy by positioning the country as a leading exporter of this valuable natural resource.

Chlorophyll Africa Limited is committed to the sustainability of the gum arabic industry. We provide extensive training to local farmers and harvesters on the best methods for gum harvesting, focusing on techniques that maximize yield while ensuring the long-term health of Acacia senegal trees. Our
agroforestry programs emphasize the integration of Acacia senegal into farming systems, promoting
biodiversity, soil conservation, and sustainable livelihoods.

The conservation of Acacia senegal is at the heart of our mission. These trees are not only a source of livelihood but also play a crucial role in the ecosystem.
