Following the increase of commodities and the inflation rate in the country, Brewery has deem it fit to increase on their products. This is as a result of the concern raised by their shareholders, owning the fact that if the company continue to operate with the old prices they will be at a shamble within the shortest possible time, considering the cost of materials they are using to manufacture their products.
In an interview with the Co-operate Affairs Manager ( MR. ALBERT OJU COLIA ) he noted that the increment of prices in their products affects the entire nation. He again stated that, they are implementing affordability strategy, even though the increase in price they are available and the quantity remain the same.
He finally stated that, the Company has invested over 190 billion leones in reinstalling new machines that will add quality in taste and flavour in their products to reach international standards.
