The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is set to firm its grip as one of Kenya’s export markets with a scheduled new economic partnership agreement (EPA) with Nairobi, that would further ease trade between the two countries.

State House on Monday indicated that President William Ruto would sign an EPA with the UAE as part of a trip to the Middle East country, which has become the second-largest export market after Uganda on re-exports of jet fuel.
