Eaagads Estate is a coffee farm owned by Eaagads Company Limited (a company that is listed in the Nairobi Stock Exchange).
The farm lies in Ngoingwa location, Karibaribi sub-location, Thika west sub-county at Kiambu County.
The Estate was originally established by Catholic Missionaries and was held by colonial settlers well into the 20th century.
Although the limited company was founded very early (in the 1940s), the farm has gone through organisational changes.
In the 1950s, it was split into three separate farms, all bordered by the Chania river to their north, with different titles being commuted to different shareholders.
Due to this, today the coffee plantations on the Estate bears the strange feature of being split into two parts, as the middle farm (at some point owned by the Kenyatta family – or that of the first Kenyan president!) was converted out of coffee.
