Sugar prices to remain stable despite production drop, authorities assure Kenyans

Still on sugar matters, Kenyans have been assured that prices will remain stable despite concerns over supply, triggered by a sharp drop in production and prolonged dry conditions in key growing regions. Authorities say the current challenges are part of a planned transition phase in the sugar sector and not a supply crisis. Measures are already in place to stabilise the market and protect consumers from shortages and price manipulation.
