Authorities in Nairobi have stepped up crackdowns on the illegal trade of uncustomed and counterfeit alcohol. These efforts have led to the seizure of various illicit drinks across the city.

According to Food Business Africa, the Alcohol Beverages Association of Kenya (ABAK) is calling for more aggressive action. The group is urging the government to implement stronger surveillance and improved border controls to stop the flow of fake products.

Industry leaders believe that enhancing traceability is essential to protecting consumers and ensuring that only legitimate products reach the market.
