The Kenya Consumer Price Index and Inflation Report August 2021

Abstract

The CPI increased by 0.23 per cent from a revised index of 115.446 in July 2021 to 115.710 in August 2021. The month to month Food and Non-Alcoholic Drinks’ Index increased by 0.46 per cent between July 2021 and August 2021. This was mainly attributed to increase in prices of some food items, which outweighed the decrease in prices of others.
