The number of jobs created by the two-decade-old Growth and Opportunity Act (Agoa) agreement between Kenya and America has hit 66,260 ahead of the expiry of the trade deal.
The latest data shows the value of apparels exported from Kenya via Export Processing Zones (EPZ) under the pact hit a new high of Sh54.1 billion last year, translating to a 10.8 percent rise from the Sh41.6 billion realised in 2018.
