The average price of coffee slipped by six per cent during Tuesday’s closing sale of the main crop season, on lower quality, marking the end of an impressive trading window despite the disruptions of Covid-19.
A 50-kilogramme bag of the produce traded at Sh21,277 at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange (NCE), down from Sh22,680 during the previous sale even as traders went on a month-long recess until June 14.
