China Southern Airlines has hired a firm associated with billionaire businessman Peter Muthoka to handle its cargo business, making his company one of the biggest beneficiaries of the entry of the giant Asian carrier into Kenya.

The airline, which landed at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Wednesday on its inaugural flight from Guangzhou to Nairobi, is mainly targeting the increasing number of Kenyan businessmen who import goods from China.
