About Ufuta

Ufuta is a cooking oil made from refined palm olein and sold cholesterol-free for everyday frying. Bidco markets it as an African kitchen staple rather than a specifically Kenyan one, which reflects a company that sells into more than twenty-five countries from factories in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.
