Treetop will be available in orange, mango, apple and tropical flavours, and instead of the famous glass bottle, the drink is now packed in plastic containers.

Industrialisation Cabinet Secretary Adan Mohamed said the relaunch would go a long way in creating employment and supporting horticultural farming.

“I understand Sky Foods will be sourcing mango pulp and passion fruit concentrate locally. These products are grown by small-scale farmers in the coastal, central and eastern regions,” he said.

Mr Mohamed said an estimated 3,000 farmers would benefit directly by having a ready market for their crop and the number is expected to rise with the envisaged demand for Treetop.

Can't they deal directly with supermarkets?

I know they will have customers in the beginning (people remembering the "good" old days) then people will realize just how things have changed... no one likes the taste of sodium benzoate in their mouths these days.

I agree with Masukuma, Tree top will not sell for the now very health conscious customers

Kenyans are not as health conscious as you guys imagine!!

Kenyans actually eat more junk food* now than in the "good old" Tree Top days! We also have more obese/overweight people*. Drinking through the roof. Physical activity at an all time low!!!

Kenyans are far much worse off now!

* Both actual numbers and per capita!
