Salt Sub-sector in Kenya Pushes for Policy Reforms to Boost Competitiveness

The KAM (Kenya Association of Manufacturers) Salt Sub-sector engaged with national and county government agencies to address challenges hindering its growth. Key issues discussed included high production costs due to multiple taxes and regulatory overlaps, the seawater levy imposed by the Water Resource Management Authority, and increased salt cess charges and land rates by Kilifi County. Additionally, illegal salt harvesting continues to cause financial losses. KAM’s Chief Executive stressed the importance of policy alignment and a multi-sectoral approach to keep the industry competitive locally and regionally. The engagement also included visits to two member companies in the sub-sector.
