Kenyan exporters reaped big from a recent virtual trade event, an indication of economic recovery prospects amid the coronavirus effects. The 10 women exporters who exhibited in the 3-day virtual exhibition were able to interact with global stakeholders. In the virtual trade fair, Kenya was represented by 10 exporters in fruits and vegetables including Biofarm Limited, Dakiem Limited, Food Africa Limited, FreshPlus Limited among others. Kenya’s trade with European Union has been stable over years with the market one of the most dependent on Kenyan exports. They however remained subdued to regions across the world in particular Europe and the US due to COVID-19 restrictions thus virtual trade presents an opportunity for recovery.
