ICICI Bank has put Naivasha-based Karuturi Ltd up for sale over a disputed Sh4 billion loan. The planned sale could mark the end for the erstwhile world’s largest rose flower producer.

Claiming to have made an investment of US$75M and created 4000 jobs, Karuturi is not only appealing for the release or re-export of its properties but to sue Ethiopian officials hereferred to as “responsible” for violations of rights of a foreign entity.

La multinationale annonce son intention de sortir du pays suite à l’annulation de son allocation de terres. Karuturi est l’un des premiers investisseurs étrangers à louer des terres en Éthiopie.

Karuturi Global Ltd., an Indian flower grower, demanded compensation from the Ethiopian government for a series of failed land deals as it prepares to exit the Horn of Africa nation.

A Naivasha company has sued the cash-strapped flower firm Twiga Roses, formerly Karuturi Limited, seeking to eject it from its land over unpaid land rent and illegal acquisition.

Indian company Estina was given a free 99-year lease to a 4,400 ha farm, as well as a guaranteed R114-million per year for the construction and running of the farm, but cash was siphoned out of the country as quickly as the South African public paid it over.

Kenya's Court of Appeal has opened the door for Indian bank ICICI to revive its plans to sell Karuturi’s land in Naivasha valued at $80 million to recover loans extended to the flower firm
