The Kenyan government is launching a multi-faceted plan to revive the stalled Kwale International Sugar Company (KISCOL), a significant sugar investment at the Coast.

• Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe announced the formation of a stakeholder committee, led by the Kenya Sugar Board (KSB), to address challenges affecting KISCOL.
• The government is committed to resolving issues including land disputes, cane shortages, vandalism, delayed farmer payments, and insecurity, with support from President William Ruto.
• Immediate measures include clearing Sh66 million in outstanding farmers' arrears and working with the Kwale County Government to resettle squatters on the firm's land.
