President William Ruto has pledged to increase the trade volume with Tanzania so as to foster strong bilateral ties between the two neighbouring countries.
President Ruto stated that the two nations will be working to double trade from the current Sh90 billion so as ensure the trade and investors benefit from the relations.
Kenya's trade with Tanzania has grown steadily in the past years in the wake of improved relations between the two countries after years of feuds that at one point resulted in retaliatory measures such as trade bans.
The Head of State mentioned that Trade Cabinet Secretaries between the two nations alongside other officials will be having a meeting to iron out fourteen trade barriers that have stifled operations between the two states.
President Ruto outlined that the remaining barriers have locked trade between the two nations in the East Africa region.
