CS Sen. Mutahi Kagwe has directed tea factories to reject green leaf that does not meet the recommended "two leaves and a bud" standard, saying the Government's KSh 7.1B tea factory modernisation programme must be matched by improved tea quality.

Speaking during a visit to Kapsara Tea Factory, where he handed over KSh 44.6M for the installation of a new withering plant, CS Kagwe said Kenya cannot modernise factories while continuing to process substandard green leaf that attracts lower prices in international markets.

He said the Government's strategy is to create a new cycle of growth through modern factories, better-quality green leaf, higher-value orthodox and specialty teas, stronger value addition and diversification into more international markets.

Driving more than transport, driving livelihoods and economic empowerment.

As we step into August, we reflect on a month that celebrated the resilience, achievements and transformative power of Kenya's cooperative movement.

To preserve these remarkable moments, Sacco World Magazine produced a special Ushirika Day Edition, capturing the stories, milestones and people who continue to shape the future of SACCOs and cooperatives across the country.

Because celebrations may last a day, but the stories and impact deserve to be remembered for generations.

Every great SACCO has a story. The best ones are told by those who were there from the beginning.

Our conversation with Mr. Eliud Katana, one of the founding members of Tabasuri DT SACCO, took us back to where it all started, a journey of vision, resilience and unwavering commitment to members.

Reflecting on the SACCO's remarkable growth, he shared his pride in seeing an institution that has evolved far beyond what its founders imagined, while remaining true to its purpose of empowering members, strengthening livelihoods and transforming communities.

Some legacies are measured not just by years, but by the lives they've changed.
