The Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA) Holdings has appointed James Githinji Mwangi as its new chairman following a board election.
Mwangi replaces Enos Njeru, while Engineer Samson Mosonik Menjo will retain his position as vice-chairman.
The leadership change comes as the agency faces pressure to improve factory efficiency, strengthen tea marketing and increase returns to smallholder farmers.
KTDA has assured farmers and other stakeholders that the transition will not disrupt operations, saying it remains focused on operational efficiency and protecting shareholder interests.
