Kenya's National Assembly unanimously approved the Excise Duty (Remission of Excise Duty) Regulations, 2026, which let the Cabinet Secretary grant excise duty remission on beer, spirits and wine made from sorghum, millet, cassava or other non-barley crops grown in Kenya. The regulations were presented to Parliament in August by the National Treasury.
The exemption may steer some demand toward locally grown sorghum and cassava for alcohol production instead of sugar, a small shift in local grain use. The effect on feed-grade supply and prices is likely minimal.
