Miss Grand Kenya is a national female beauty pageant in Kenya, established in 2024 by Tanveen Onyango, chairperson of The Drop Models Kenya modeling school, to select the country’s representatives for the Miss Grand International pageant. Prior to the creation of this formal national competition, all Kenyan representatives were appointed, the first being Pauline Akwacha, a national finalist of Miss World Kenya 2012, who was designated by Beauties of Africa Inc., under the direction of Andy Abulime, to compete at the inaugural Miss Grand International in Thailand in 2013.

Kenya’s only placement at Miss Grand International occurred in 2020, when Irene Ng’endo advanced to the top twenty finalists.
