Design and sizing
Every machine starts from what the customer sells and how much: litres per day, water source or product, space and power. We size the tank, pumps, treatment stages and controls, then fix the layout for easy cleaning and service.

How H-TECH Machines Are Made
Herritech Ventures designs and builds its own H-TECH machines in Kenya: milk ATMs, cooking oil ATMs, water vending and RO systems, pasteurizers, chillers and stainless kitchen and dairy equipment. Here is how a machine goes from an idea to a working business.
From design to a working business: our six stages
This is an overview of our process. Detailed build methods are taught in our paid local assembly and manufacturing training.
Stainless steel fabrication
Tanks, cabinets, frames, sinks and tables are cut, bent and welded in our workshop in Ruiru. Food-contact parts are made in stainless steel; the grade used for your machine is stated on your quotation.
Plumbing, wiring and controls
We fit pumps, valves, taps, filters and pipework, then wire the panel: the H-TECH controller, displays, flow measurement and the payment or token system the machine uses.
Cabinet finishing and branding
Cabinets are finished in stainless steel, mild steel or MDF depending on the model, and branded with the owner's business name and colours when ordered. Branding inclusions are confirmed on your quotation.
Testing before delivery
Before a machine leaves the workshop we run it: dispensing accuracy, temperatures for chilled machines, water quality readings for treatment systems, leaks, and every control and payment function.
Installation, training and service
We deliver and install across Kenya, and in Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda; other countries on request. We train the owner and staff to run, clean and price sales, and stay on call for service and spare parts.

Questions about how our machines are made
Where are H-TECH machines made?
In the Herritech Ventures workshop on the Eastern Bypass, Kamakis, Ruiru, Kenya. We design, fabricate, wire, test and brand the machines there before delivery.
How long has Herritech been building machines?
Our build archive starts in 2015 with our first machine and fabrication work; the first cooking oil vending machine was built and tested in 2018, and the range has grown since then.
Which machines do you manufacture?
Milk ATMs, cooking oil ATMs, water vending and refill stations, RO purification plants, milk pasteurizers, milk chillers and stainless steel kitchen and dairy equipment, plus custom stainless work.
Can you build a machine to my own design or size?
Yes. Send us what you want to sell or treat, your daily volume, space and power, and we will design, quote and build it.
Can my business name be on the machine?
Yes. Machines can be branded with your business name and colours when you order; branding inclusions are confirmed on your quotation.
Do you teach people to build or assemble the machines?
Yes, through our paid local assembly and manufacturing training for workshops and fabricators. See the partner programmes page.
