Kenya to gradually remove taxes on UK goods in pact
Cabinet Secretary for Industrialisation, Trade and Enterprise Development Betty Maina with UK's International Trade Minister Ranil Jayawardena during the signing of the Kenya-UK trade deal in London, United Kingdom on December 8, 2020. Also present is Kenya's High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Manoah Esipisu.
Kenya will gradually remove taxes on imports from the UK after seven years following a trade pact the two countries signed Tuesday last week.
Mr James Duddridge, the UK minister for Africa, said the deal— strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) — is aimed at “doing more trade with less friction” between the UK and the six-nation East African Community bloc.
