Kerio Valley Development Authority [ KVDA] will next week ship five tonnes of honey to the United States as it targets 300,000 kilos by next year. As part of enhancing its local and regional markets, KVDA opened a shop in Nairobi’s Eastleigh business district, where it targets to sell 3000 kilos of honey and exports to Somalia, which was recently incorporated into the East African Community.
Cabinet Secretary for Ministry of East African Community, Arid and Semi-Arid lands, and Regional Development Peninnah Malonza speaking in Eastleigh hailed the agency for empowering local community through value addition.
