Nairobi, Kenya | Xinhua | Kenya on Friday urged the local manufacturing community to expand the range of products available in readiness for the expansion of market opportunities in Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
Betty Maina, the Cabinet Secretary at the Ministry of Industrialization, Trade and Enterprise Development, called on the manufacturers in Kenya to increase the range of manufactured goods and services available to the market in order to take advantage of new market opportunities around the world.
Maina, who joined the Kenya Association of Manufacturers (KAM) in Nairobi during the industry’s launch of preparations for the hosting of a manufacturing sector expo, slated for November 24 to 28 in Nairobi, said the increased production of goods would facilitate entry into new markets.
KAM CEO Phyllis Wakiaga said the Changamka festival, the annual manufacturing expo, will provide a sales platform to local manufacturers, including the producers of agricultural produce, processed foods, fresh produce, and motor vehicle spares.
The manufacturing expo is expected to provide a platform to Kenya’s manufacturing industry to launch new products.
