What makes a good butchery name
- Easy to say and spell. Customers will tell their friends about you, and type your name into M-Pesa.
- Says what you sell. "Butchery", "Meats" or "Nyama" in the name helps people find you.
- Short enough for the signboard and the till. M-Pesa shows your business name on every customer's message.
- Room to grow. A name tied to one estate can feel wrong when you open a second branch.

Common questions
How do I register a butchery business name in Kenya?
Search and reserve the name on the Business Registration Service through eCitizen, then register the business with your ID and KRA PIN. Use the same name for your county permit and M-Pesa till.

Either works. Pick the one your customers use every day. Swahili names like Nyama Bora feel local and friendly; English names can suit hotel supply.
