Kenya's strengths offering vast business opportunities
Kenya has long recognized the benefits of inward investments and has welcomed overseas companies looking to do business in and with Kenya for decades. With its stable, pro-business government, and access to lucrative markets, Kenya is a perfect investment destination for Chinese investors.
As the strongest economy in East Africa, the safari kingdom offers a sizeable domestic market of more than 30 million people. A member of the East African Community (EAC), it is also within easy reach of a population of 120 million comprising five states and backed by a Customs Union protocol. The EAC came into effect in January 2005, and is expected to form a political federation by 2013.
