The High Court has dismissed a petition by a Chinese firm seeking to suspend a multibillion-shilling tender by the Kenya Bureau of Standards (Kebs) for the pre-inspection of goods destined for the Kenyan market.

The court ruled that World Standardisation, Certification and Testing Group (Shenzen) Co. Ltd had failed to prove that the due diligence conducted by the Kebs evaluation committee was flawed.
