The Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) has issued a warning against 14 maize flour millers for allegedly producing low-quality flour.
KEBS has also ordered for the recall of the flour being distributed countrywide and further removal of the brands from market stores.
Through its statement, the body said those to be recalled are Ndovu Maize Flour, Prestige Sifted Maize, Range Corn, Sima Tamu, Top White, Winnies Ugali Afya, Bel’s Organic, Diamond Sifted Maize, Family, Jasiri Satiated Maize, Jema Sifted Maize, Jibe Maize Flour, Jodari, and Mugambo Sifted Maize Meal.
Similarly, it has issued a warning to the millers to demonstrate compliance with other products it is yet to test before selling.
However, KEBS noted it is not a total ban on the products, but a temporary measure to ensure that products being sold have reached the required standard.
