Kenya boosts tea and coffee marketing budgets
Kenya is boosting the budgets of its tea and coffee boards to help them compete more effectively in the global marketplace, a senior official said yesterday.
The tea board will get an additional 62 million shillings from state coffers this financial year, an increase of about a third on what it got last year.
The coffee board, which only received 8 million shillings from the government last year, will get 110 million shillings.
