Tea buyers boycott KTDA factory over director in sex abuse exposé
A tea plucking machine commonly known as valiant, at James Finlay tea estate in Kericho which has fully mechanised its operations in the estates in this photo taken on March 10, 2023.
A fallout is nigh in the tea sector as both Finlays and Lipton Teas call for removal of the newly elected director of Tegat Tea Factory, John Chebochok, who has been accused of sexual exploitation of women in a BBC News investigative expose.
Tegat Tea owns Toror Tea Factory and both firms are part of the 54 tea companies that own Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA). Lipton Teas has stopped buying tea from the Tegat/Toror factories and has called for other processors to follow suit.
