The average retail prices of baby formula products have dipped by up to 20 percent over the past year, aided by a stronger shilling against the dollar and competition among traders.
A spot-check by the Business Daily revealed that prices of popular baby formula brands have fallen by between 2 percent and 20 percent, equivalent to a reduction of around Sh150 to Sh300 for a 400-gramme tin of the product compared to a year ago.
