Could Kenya become Egypt’s gateway to a wider African market?

Africa’s young, urbanising consumer base is creating sustained demand for apparel and footwear.
Egypt’s ECAHT has agreed to set up a logistics hub in Kenya to reduce freight costs, delivery times and distributor access barriers.
The hub will cover shipping, warehousing and insurance, with shipments due in September and targeted garment exports estimated to rise by at least 20 per cent.
