About us

The Kentros Story

Founded in 2012, Kentros Biosciences was formed to address a critical challenge that scientists and researchers in East Africa were facing - the lack of access to products and technologies that were easily available elsewhere.

We wanted to change the way suppliers served their customers because for far too long the scientists were at the mercy of their suppliers who had little or no understanding of the requirements of the researchers. With this in mind, we have put together a portfolio of very high calibre life sciences products for our customers in East Africa. We have partnered with Bioline, 4titude, Nimagen, AHN Biotechnologie and FluidX as their exclusive distributor in East Africa in order to bring these amazing products right to the bench of our scientists.

This, together with our consultative approach, scientific expertise and proactive attitude towards stellar customer service will help ensure that our researchers have ready access to all the tools and technologies required to catapult them to the leading edge of world class molecular biology research. We truly strive to be Your PCR Partner in Africa.
