ABAK exists to support the alcohol industry by providing training, information and technical expertise to the government agencies, consumers, value chain players and the society, at large.
A non-profit organisation, ABAK was founded in 2007.It was then known as the National Alcoholic Beverages Association of Kenya (NABAK). Initially, the aim was to bring together industry players to champion and adopt a common position while addressing a myriad of challenges faced by the industry such as the rise of illicit alcoholic drinks produced by unscrupulous individuals.
ABAK is headed by a board of directors comprising of Chief Executives from member companies. A Management Committee comprising of Senior Managers from these organisations is responsible for the day-to-day running of the association with the help of a permanent secretariat.
