Buzzworthy Kendake Hive Member: Meet Michelle

We will be showcasing highlights of some of the amazing women who have helped shape our business. First up is Michelle, who was instrumental in developing our go-to-market strategy. Her contribution helped lay the foundation for bringing our African honey to UK shelves, and her personal connection to beekeeping makes her story even more special.

Michelle’s Reflections:"Over the summer, I was searching for opportunities where I could empower a change-maker driven by a bold mission. I was introduced to Chi Okafor and her bold mission to empower African female farmers through Kendake Honey. I immediately felt a strong connection to her story and her mission because my Grandfather supported our family’s livelihood by harvesting and growing his own raw honey— Flor del Monte. 

Empowering Kendake Honey by helping develop its go-to-market strategy for the UK market has been both a rewarding professional experience and a meaningful contribution to the company’s own mission in empoweringAfrican female farmers to provide a livelihood for their families as my Grandfather did for ours". 

At Kendake Honey, we believe that behind every jar is a story worth telling — of resilience, connection, and shared values.
