Structure & background

Medium Liquor Traders Association was thought of in June 2020 by the founder Mr. Mbogo Frank, after noticing the plight of liquor traders in Kenya, when the country first experienced COVID-19 restrictions on a national restriction on alcohol. The liquor was not organized and did not have a voice to represent their needs and amplify the challenges they faced as a result of the national lockdown restrictions on liquor sales. Other African countries dealt with the situation differently whilst facing the global pandemic.
