Monthly coffee earnings nearly doubled to $90.4 million (Sh10.2 billion) in January as Kenya benefited from high global prices in the market occasioned by a shortage of the produce.
Nairobi Coffee Exchange (NCE) said the earnings jumped 90 percent from $47.5 million (Sh5.3 billion) in the corresponding month a year earlier, helped by a shortage of the produce in the market caused by frost in Brazil that affected production at the world’s leading producer.
