Apology and Clarification: Pembe Flour Mills Ltd not under investigation by Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK)

NAIROBI, Kenya Apr 26 – On April 11, 2023, we published an article indicating that the Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) was investigating Pembe Flour Mills Limited for alleged abuse of buyer power.

We take this early opportunity to clarify that the article was erroneous since the investigations involved Britania Foods Limited and the complaint was withdrawn and the investigations closed.

We apologize to Pembe Flour Mills Limited for the wrong impression the article created.

The article was sourced from 2021-2022 Annual Reports and Financial Statements of CAK:  https://www.cak.go.ke/planning/annual-reports

The case summary in the CAK report shows that the “complaint was on alleged abuse of buyer power by Britania Foods Limited through delays in payment.”
