The Kenya Dairy Board (KDB) has impounded illicit powder milk valued at Sh35.67 million in a crackdown that has also revealed possible adulteration of the commodity with maize flour by unscrupulous traders.
In a statement, the Board said the confiscated goods include a consignment of 655 25-kilogramme bags of full cream spray dried milk powder that lacked importation documents from a wholesaler on Nairobi's Eastern Bypass in August last year.
