Eveready gets nod to sell off Nakuru land

Shareholders of loss-making battery maker Eveready have voted to sell off the company’s land in Nakuru, in a move that marks yet another low for the erstwhile giant manufacturer.

The 18.5 acre piece of land is where the Eveready’s closed factory sits, including all its mothballed production equipment. The battery manufacturing plant shut its doors in 2014.
