Between May and June 2020, roughly 79 percent of households in Kenya reported experiencing increases in food prices. The price development may be related to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, as it led to supply disruptions in the country. Kenya adopted measures to contain the spread of the virus, such as a dusk-to-dawn nationwide curfew.
