- Eveready East Africa PLC is a Kenya-based fast-moving consumer goods and distribution company engaged in the sourcing, marketing, and distribution of portable power solutions, household lighting, automotive products, and personal care goods. The company operates through distinct product and service categories: portable power solutions, including carbon-zinc dry cell batteries, alkaline batteries, rechargeable batteries, and miniature specialty cells under the Turbo brand; household and portable lighting devices, comprising flashlights, lanterns, domestic LED lamps, and emergency lighting systems; automotive energy and accessories, including maintenance-free automotive batteries, commercial vehicle batteries, and related automotive power supplies under the Turbo Dakar brand; and household hygiene and cleaning goods, featuring washing detergents, scouring powders, and surface care products under the Tenta brand. The company serves mass-market retail consumers, commercial businesses, and institutional clients through an extensive distribution network spanning general trade wholesalers, supermarkets, and specialty stockists across Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and the broader East African region. In recent major corporate developments, the company experienced a significant ownership and board restructuring following the acquisition of a controlling anchor stake by Investika Investments Limited from East Africa Batteries Limited, prompting a comprehensive business recovery and channel revitalization program. Operationally, Eveready East Africa PLC has advanced its transition to a fully asset-light supply chain and third-party contract distribution model, monetized non-core industrial real estate following the closure of its legacy Nakuru dry-cell manufacturing plant, and expanded its commercial offerings through new private-label distribution agreements and broadened product diversification across automotive and domestic FMCG segments. Founded in 1967, Eveready East Africa PLC is headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, and is listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange under the ticker symbol EVRD.
