Ketepa is a brand of tea in Kenya which is a subsidiary of Kenya Tea Development Agency Limited (KTDA) which is the largest small-scale farmer umbrella body in the World with over 650,000 farmers.
The name derives from Kenya Tea Packers.[2] Ketepa is the largest tea company in Kenya, it has been making tea since 1978, but officially registered in 1997,[3] and has its headquarters in Kericho but the law allowing Ketepa to export was only passed in 1992.[4]
One advertising campaign seeks to turn "tea time" into "Ketepa time."[5]
Ketepa won the Superbrands East Africa award in 2007.[4]
