Vitafoam Kenya Claimed
Vitafoam Products Limited was established In May 1967 as Vitafoam East Africa Limited (an associate Of British Vita of UK) and later as Vitafoam Kenya Limited under the British Vita Patent Rights.
Vitafoam Kenya started its first operations in Mombasa in a mere 5,000 sq. ft. in one corner of a plastic factory which was originally built as a coffee warehouse. With its quality products, it grew rapidly and became a household name in the bedding and furniture industry. With a successful business environment and under an expansion program, it opened its branch in 1970 in Nairobi on Bamburi Road, Industrial Area to cater for the upcountry market. The tremendous success of Nairobi branch led to the shift of the headquarters from Mombasa to Nairobi. The Mombasa factory has to date remained a branch.
However, British Vita in 1989 resolved to disinvest and sell the shares of the company to indigenous Kenyans. This opportunity was taken by present owner of the company, Mr. Chandrakant P Shah who took over the company as Chairman and renamed it “Vitafoam Products limited”. Mr. C P Shah along with his wife, late Mrs. Ramilaben Chandrakant Shah (Managing Director until her demise in January 2001) decided to expand the company and relocated the premises to its present modern location on Mombasa Road, Nairobi in 1992.
