Economic Growth
Kenya has consistently shown economic growth, which can be seen in our increasing GDP. Supported primarily by the agricultural, manufacturing, mining and investment sectors, recent years have also seen a resurgence in the country’s tourism industry, pushing foreign exchange.
Diaspora remittances are also on the rise and are an additional stabilising force in Kenya’s foreign exchange, as well as a show of confidence from Kenyans living abroad.
Locally, governmental efforts to improve and expand Kenya’s infrastructure, including the Standard Gauge Railway Project, are creating the potential for more industry growth. These projects will also allow for expansion and greater efficiency in import and export operations in Kenya.
As the Kenyan market continues to grow, so does financial access. The buying potential of Kenyans is increasing, as is their drive to take advantage of investment opportunities.
