Driving access to world-class infant nutrition
Sacoma Global Foods was proud to take part in the 46th Pharmaceutical Society of Kenya (PSK) Annual Scientific Conference, held from 24 to 26 June 2026 at PrideInn Paradise Beach Resort, Mombasa.
The conference brought together more than 1,200 healthcare stakeholders: pharmacists, paediatricians, doctors, hospital leaders, regulators, procurement specialists, manufacturers, distributors, development partners, financial institutions and academia.
For us it was far more than an exhibition. It was a chance to strengthen healthcare partnerships, meet key decision makers and advance our mission of improving access to high-quality nutrition across East and Central Africa.
Championing Kendamil’s regional growth
As the licensed distributor with full distribution rights for Kendamil across East and Central Africa, Sacoma Global Foods is leading the brand’s strategic expansion throughout the region.
Our presence at PSK 2026 was part of that commitment: introducing healthcare professionals and institutions to Kendamil, and building long-term partnerships that support sustainable growth.
Working alongside Kendal Nutricare, the UK manufacturer of Kendamil, we engaged with healthcare professionals, institutional buyers and strategic partners on Kendamil’s commitment to quality, traceability and scientifically developed nutrition.

Knowledge & community
These conversations explored the changing needs of infant nutrition in Kenya and the wider region, and where healthcare providers, industry and international partners can work more closely together.
Promoting responsible infant nutrition
At Sacoma Global Foods, we recognise that breastfeeding is the recommended first choice for feeding a baby, and remains the best source of nourishment wherever possible.
Breastfeeding first. Where families need an alternative, they deserve one they can trust.Sacoma Global Foods
Alongside that message, we introduced Kendamil to healthcare professionals as a trusted formula option for families who need an alternative feeding solution, with a focus on quality ingredients and rigorous manufacturing standards.
The conference also gave us valuable insight from healthcare professionals into infant feeding challenges, access to products, and how support for families across Kenya could be strengthened.
Creating pathways for future collaboration
Beyond introducing Kendamil, PSK 2026 opened the door to new collaborations across healthcare, pharmaceuticals, research and professional education. Together with the people we met, we explored how to:
Strengthen healthcare capacity through international knowledge exchange.
Support clinical education on infant nutrition.
Collaborate on research and innovation.
Build partnerships with hospitals, pharmacies and healthcare institutions.
Widen access to trusted nutrition products across East and Central Africa.
Contribute to better maternal and child health outcomes.
These conversations reinforce our role not only as a distributor, but as a strategic partner connecting global healthcare innovation with regional health systems.
Looking ahead
As a UK-based company with strong African roots, Sacoma Global Foods is committed to building lasting partnerships that improve healthcare, nutrition and food systems across the continent.
Our exclusive distribution partnership with Kendamil is about more than a brand. It reflects a wider vision: connecting international innovation with local healthcare needs, supporting healthcare professionals, and widening access to safe, high-quality nutrition for families.
We thank the Pharmaceutical Society of Kenya for hosting an exceptional conference, and everyone who spent time with us at the stand. The conversations begun in Mombasa have laid the foundation for new partnerships, and we look forward to working with healthcare professionals, institutions and partners to help shape a healthier future for children and families across the region.
