At the Women Enterprise Awards (WESA) 2025, we continue to celebrate the resilience, innovation, and impact of women shaping Kenya’s economy. Over the years, women entrepreneurs have transformed industries through bold ideas and unwavering determination. This year, we turn our focus to two vital sectors driving national growth and global competitiveness — hospitality and manufacturing.
Manufacturing Sector Excellence Award
Hospitality Award
Kenya’s hospitality and tourism sectors are thriving, driven by women entrepreneurs who infuse creativity, quality, and genuine warmth into their businesses. These leaders are redefining guest experiences and raising industry standards.
This award recognizes a woman-led enterprise that excels in service delivery, innovation, and sustainability within the hospitality, tourism, or food and beverage space. It highlights businesses that go beyond profit — those that build communities, inspire excellence, and embody authentic Kenyan hospitality.
To qualify, nominees should demonstrate consistent customer satisfaction, steady business growth, and a clear impact on Kenya’s tourism scene — whether through a boutique hotel, a standout restaurant, a tour company, or a distinctive food brand.
