Article Meat processor Farmers Choice Limited has lost a tax appeal after a tribunal found that it filed its challenge against a Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) tariff decision outside the statutory deadline.

The Tax Appeals Tribunal struck out the manufacturer’s appeal and upheld KRA’s April 10, 2025 review decision on the classification of an imported ingredient used in the manufacture of sausages and other processed meat products.

Farmers Choice also argued that KRA failed to communicate a review decision within 30 days required under the East African Community Customs Management Act.
