Import information for the Republic of Kenya
Kenya imports various products for consumption and for use in manufacturing. With a liberalized economy and globalization of markets, importers in Kenya are expected to be more competitive and innovative in international trade if they are to effectively exploit the opportunities that world markets present.
However, international trade transactions are complex and involve many players, regulations, standards and financial relationships. This complexity means that many potential importers lack adequate knowledge on what needs to be done to transact effectively. It is for this reason they shy away from international trade.
