Kenyans could soon have to dig deeper into their pockets for maize and wheat flour after a leading miller cautioned the public of a looming hike in prices due to increased production costs.
In a financial statement published on Thursday, the miller which processes popular maize and wheat brands indicated that the increase would stem from an increase in exchange rates.
While the miller noted that the Shilling had strengthened in recent days, there were still existing risks in the exchange rate owing to fluctuations.
The company expounded that the exchange rates are likely to impact the costs of imported raw materials and shipping
