List of 77 Companies the Kenyan Government Plans to Shut Down
The government of Kenya has given a three-month notice to 77 firms Dated: February 5, 2025, informing them of their imminent deregistration from the Register of Companies.
The notice, issued by Joyce Koech, Registrar of Companies, attributes non-compliance with the Companies Act as the major cause for this drastic action.
What if the companies involved do not remedy their compliance problems within the given period?
They would then be struck off the register permanently, essentially no longer existing as legal business entities.
Why Are These Companies Being Closed?
Under the Companies Act (Cap. 486), companies are expected to keep records updated, pay their financial obligations, and meet their regulatory filings.
Over an extended period, failure occurs, leading to dissolution.
The Registrar of Companies has made it clear that the listed companies either have been dormant, failed to comply with the law, or otherwise voluntarily sought dissolution.
What Can Companies Do to Avoid Deregistration
To avoid being removed from the Companies Register, the concerned companies must:
- File all outstanding statutory filings.
- Bring their records up to date with the Registrar of Companies.
- Rectify any non-compliance within the next three months.
- Apply for an extension or demonstrate a valid justification for ongoing registration.
