A group of investors, under Kipenzi Sugar Limited, plans to establish a new Sh1.46 billion sugar factory in Siaya County, Kenya.

• The proposed mill will have an initial cane crushing capacity of 1,250 tonnes per day, expandable to 2,500 TCD.
• The factory will source sugarcane from approximately 10,000 hectares of land cultivated by registered outgrower farmers within a 15-kilometre radius.
• In addition to sugar production, the factory aims to generate 3 megawatts of captive power and utilize by-products for diversification.
