NAIROBI — The Kenyan government has intensified the search for new markets for horticultural produce in the light of growing uncertainties in the traditional export destinations, officials said on Thursday.
Principal Secretary for Agriculture Sicily Kariuki said in Nairobi the government will partner with growers to explore new markets for cut flowers, fruits and vegetables.
"Market access is key to the growth of the horticulture industry whose contribution to the exchequer is profound. As a government, we are working closely with industry to diversify market for fresh produce," Kariuki said during a national conference to discuss competitiveness in the horticulture sector.
