The State has granted Centum Investment Company a permit to run a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Vipingo, Kilifi, cementing the coastal region's dominance as a host of such hubs meant to drive economic growth through exports and job creation.
Trade Cabinet secretary Salim Mvurya said Centum has been granted a permit to operate an SEZ, pushing the number of SEZs licenced in the coast region to 10 out of the 39 cleared nationwide this year.
