MufasaPreparing your cover
When your production line stops, so does your income. This gets it running again.
Mufasa Insurance Agencies arranges machinery breakdown insurance across Kericho County - Kericho, Litein, Kipkelion, Londiani and every town in between. Kericho is the heart of Kenya's tea industry, with the large multinational estates and thousands of smallholders supplying KTDA factories. With manufacturing, commercial farming and trading driving the local economy, the cover that makes sense here is specific to Kericho. We are IRA-licensed, we place with Kenya's major underwriters, and quotes come back the same working day over WhatsApp.
Why Kericho Is Different
Manufacturing, commercial farming and trading put real money into equipment here. Machinery Breakdown covers the failures that stop production, which is a different risk from fire and needs its own section on the schedule.
Fire and perils cover external events. Machinery breakdown covers the machine failing on its own - electrical faults, mechanical failure, operator error. Most operators in Kericho Town and Litein discover the gap only after a motor burns out.
Underwriters price engineering risk on what a surveyor sees. We place Kericho risks with insurers who will actually send an engineer to site, because a surveyed risk is nearly always a cheaper risk.
