- Description
- When coffee first arrived in Kenya in 1893, it was an instant success. Having found a sweet spot in the country’s high altitude areas, it would shape the country’s economy and history. A century later, it was contributing nearly half of the country’s foreign exchange earnings according to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS).
But in the 1990s, the sector was shaken. Dipping global prices coupled with changing weather patterns turned the coffee boom into bust.
But new production practices and a rising demand in key markets, have helped to turn the tide, restoring hopes and livelihoods.
A certification programme by the Rainforest Alliance that integrates agroforestry, water conservation, and biodiversity protection, is bearing fruit.
In 2024, the country’s coffee exports grew by 12%, earning the country KSHS 38.4 billion or US$296.8 million, compared to US$251 million in 2023.

- Raila Odinga may not have won the presidency in five attempts, but for four decades he remained central to Kenyan politics, his unmatched charisma and tenacity giving him a hold on the nation's imagination that no electoral defeat could diminish.
He was detained without trial, forced into exile and ran for President five times, claiming each time that he was denied victory.
He was both former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta's fiercest rival and his partner in what became a historic handshake.
He once allied with current President William Ruto, then became his opponent, only to surprise many by opening a dialogue with him again.
For more than four decades, former Prime Minister Jaramogi Raila Odinga was the enigma of Kenyan politics, the man who was never quite in power, yet never out of it either.
