Formed in 1969, the club is sponsored by East African Breweries and its name refers to Tusker, a well-known beer brand by the company. The club was known as Kenya Breweries until 1999, when the current name was adopted.[4] Tusker play some home games at the 15,000-capacity Kinoru Stadium in Meru.

Tusker is currently coached by Robert Matano. Tusker F.C. played in the first ever match for the South Sudan national football team; the match was an unofficial friendly. Tusker won the match 3-1.

Tusker won the 2016 Kenyan Premier League on 6 November 2016 after beating AFC Leopards 1–0 thanks to a Shafik Batambuze strike in the 69th minute. This helped them clinch their 11th Kenyan Premier League title.
