Kenya: Company Perspectives – An ITC Series on Non-Tariff Measures (en)

Streamlining government procedures, improving transport maintenance and IT infrastructure, and better dissemination of trade-related information are cited as keys to improving Kenya’s export performance, in a new ITC country study on non-tariff measures.

The study also confirms that countries of the East African Community need to make greater efforts to harmonize procedures and product standards.
