From the administrators' statement
FIL was initially established in 1992 and later incorporated on 23 March 2006 for the purposes of distributing industrial and agricultural solutions to farming enterprises based in East Africa including Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. The Company distributed products including original equipment manufacturer brands, as well as providing technical and spare parts support.
The business was initially founded by one of the current directors, Rajiv Patel (“RP”), with his brother, Sanjeev Patel (“SP”), and cousins, Himesh Patel ("HP") and Jayesh Patel (“JP") (also brothers) later joining the Company as directors. All four directors are also equal shareholders in the Company.
FIL fostered significant relationships by partnering with superior brands of tractor manufacturers. The Company’s customers consisted of farming companies focusing on several farming solutions including land clearing, land levelling, spraying and lighting solutions, spare parts and engine parts.
