Ketepa: brands it owns and its ownership tree
Ketepa is a privately held company headquartered in Kenya that owns 5 consumer brands.[1]
Ketepa packages and sells tea in Kenya as, in its own words, "a proud arm of KTDA" — the Kenya Tea Development Agency, a farmer-owned management body for more than 650,000 smallholders producing over 60% of Kenya's tea. The company dates to 1978 and has since expanded beyond tea into bottled water under its Maisha brand. It produces more than 50 individual products across black, green, purple and white tea, flavoured teas and herbal infusions, and through KTDA's community structure it channels support into health, education, livelihoods and sustainable farming programmes in tea-growing areas.
