Patent number PC&D 001 :
expiring 2025
INVENTION TITLE: The process of making fully cooked cassava meal, the alternative food
TRADE MARK- Garri
 |
Background information With the consistence food shortage in Kenya every year, the inventors
came with this idea of an alternative food to ugali known as Garri- or
Fufu as it is known in many West African communities. It’s a cassava-based
product and the principal staple food in West Africa. Unlike maize or
wheat, cassava is a robust drought resilient crop that fixes nitrogen in
the soil, thus ideal for inter-cropping and an excellent means of
diversifying staple food production in Eastern and Southern Africa.
|
While Garri has the same look as Ugali and is consumed in a similar
manner, it differs in that it saves you time and energy! It doesn’t need
any cooking as it is already pre-cooked. All you need to do is add water,
hot or cold according to your preference.
Garri is more nutritious and healthier than maize or wheat-based products.
It’s more fibrous and less starchy.
|
It naturally contains vitamins B and C
and because palm oil is used in its preparation, it’s also rich in
vitamins A and E.Garri is helpful in cases of Celiac disease, liver
diseases, and convalescents from disease or surgery and reinitiating solid
foods after a period of fasting. Garri can also be served with all savory
foods, cold milk to make a sweet cereal thus making Garri an ideal food
for the sick, old and young.Garri has already made its way into the shelves of the biggest retail
chain in Kenya courtesy of the inventors who have put up a factory in
Tala, Kangundo District in the eastern part of Kenya. With the right
combination of marketing and production Garri is poised to be a winner in
terms of strong and steady growth and robust market share.

Patent Number PC&D 003 :
expiring 2027
INVENTION TITLE: Dual layered disinfected hand glove like tissue for
wiping cistern handles and toilet seat before use
TRADE MARK- Anti Bacterial Eco Toilet Wipes
 |
Background information
Toilets (restrooms), private or public, are a mainstay in all sectors of
society.
However, clean toilet seats and cistern handles provide a huge
challenge to overall public health and hygiene around the world.
In
general, restroom users wipe toilet seats and cistern handles with toilet
paper (or something similar) if a supply is readily available.Most places have an attendant who is required to clean the toilets on a
time specific schedule which is tiresome, time consuming and costly and
this frequency is never good enough because of the high rates of users for
these facilities.
|
The failure of a business to clean its toilets could
potentially result in the loss (or reduction) of customers especially if a
competitor offers a better sanitation alternative
In the spirit of a safer, greener environment, the inventor has used
biodegradable material to manufacture the disinfected dual layered hand
glove-like tissue-under the Anti Bacterial Eco Toilet Wipes’ brand
name-that’s worn on human hands for the purpose of disinfecting hard
surfaces such as toilet seats and cistern handles.
It should also be noted that no invention of this type exists anywhere in
the world. |
