All the State-owned warehouses will be upgraded from July, the Trade ministry has announced, as Kenya steps up efforts to establish an agricultural commodities exchange.

Trade and Investments Secretary Peter Munya said this would facilitate the establishment of an efficient warehouse receipt system that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will use to supply produce to agro-processors in line with food security pillar of the Big Four agenda.
