A way for Kenyans send love from abroad

Mama Mikes (www.mamamikes.com) is small Nairobi business founded in 2001 that takes a unique approach in facilitating incoming remittances. The company’s mission is to enable Kenyans living abroad to send love and help to family, friends, and significant others still living at home in East Africa. Sending gifts from abroad into Kenya is both difficult and expensive, but Mama Mikes provides a solution to this long existing problem. Through the website customers can order vouchers for prominent Kenyan supermarkets such as Nakumatt, and Uchumi, buy cellular airtime for loved ones, pay electricity bills or school fees, give culturally relevant gifts for special occasions such as a goat, or even buy cakes, flowers, and jewelry, among many other items and services which are constantly being updated.
