Kakuzi pays one dividend a year in mid-June. The amount swings with avocado and macadamia earnings: KSh 24 in 2023 and 2024, KSh 8 in 2025, then KSh 16 in 2026. Years are grouped by when the money was paid, not by the financial year the dividend relates to, so a year with two payments is not necessarily a bigger year for profits.

How to qualify for Kakuzi dividends
- Own the shares before the ex-dividend date. If you buy on or after that date, the seller gets the dividend. Track upcoming dates in our NSE dividend calendar.
- Hold them in your own CDS account through a licensed stockbroker; see how to buy shares on the NSE. Keep your bank or M-Pesa details up to date with the share registrar so payments are not returned.
- Claim anything missing. Unpaid dividends are eventually transferred to the Unclaimed Financial Assets Authority; see how to check and claim unclaimed dividends.
