Consumption of contaminated meat, milk, and water are among the major routes of human campylobacteriosis. This study aimed to determined the genetic diversity of
C. coli
and
C. jejuni
isolated from meat, milk, and water samples collected from different locations. From the 376 samples (meat = 248, cow milk = 72, and water = 56) collected, a total of 1238 presumptive
Campylobacter
isolates were recovered and the presence of the genus
Campylobacter
were detected in 402 isolates, and from which, 85 and 67 isolates were identified as
C. jejuni
and
C. coli
respectively. Of which, 71 isolates identified as
C. coli
(n = 35) and
C. jejuni
(n = 36) were randomly selected from meat, milk, and water samples and were genotyped using enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PCR (ERIC-PCR). The digital images of the ERIC-PCR genotype were analyzed by GelJ v.2.0 software. The diversity and similarity of the isolates were assessed via an unweighted-pair group method using average linkages clustering algorithm. The results showed that the 36
C. jejuni
strains separated into 29 ERIC-genotypes and 4 clusters while the 35
C. coli
were delineated into 29 ERIC-genotypes and 6 clusters. The study revealed the genetic diversity among
C. coli
and
C. jejuni
strains recovered from different matrices characterized by Gelj.
