Nzoia Sugar Company has resumed milling operations after a seven-month silence, following a takeover by new owners under lease terms.

The factory underwent an extensive overhaul after it was taken over by West Kenya Sugar Company. Critical repairs were carried out on the main power turbines, mill turbines, roller shells, boiler tubes, and milling units. Additional upgrades included improvements to cane preparation equipment, evaporator sets, sugar and water pumps, as well as the automation of key factory sections.
