Kenya’s earnings from goods sold to African countries for the half-year that ended June 2024 grew at the slowest pace in five years, partly reflecting slowing demand in Uganda and Tanzania, which control nearly half of the country's total exports to markets within the continent.

Traders earned Sh213.08 billion from goods exported to Africa through official borders, a modest 4.20 percent rise over Sh204.50 billion in a similar period last year.
