The company's General Manger Anderson Oloo said unless something is done urgently, the company risks grounding its production.
We are unable to sell sugar and our stores are full. We are in a state of desperation.
By Saturday, if anything is not done, we will have no option but to close down, said Oloo.
Currently, it has 30, 000 tons of sugar worth Sh325 million lying in the stores while it owes farmers
Sh270 million since February. With company's stores full,
Mr Oloo said they only have two options; either to stop production or look for alternative store in Miwani Sugar Company.
But, if we are to resort to Miwani stores, then we will have to part with additional cost of Sh300 per bag.
This will even make the final product much expensive,he said.
