The African Women in Trade Forum, hosted by the Organization for Women in International Trade (OWIT), opened today with a clear call to action: women traders need stronger governance structures, greater economic empowerment, and practical capacity building on the “how-to” of trading across borders and within the region.

KenTrade is represented at the three-day summit by Deputy Director, Trade Facilitation and Customer Experience, Furaha Wanjiru, and Deputy Director, Advocacy and Communications, Wangu Njogu.

The forum, held in partnership with the State Department of Trade, featured Principal Secretary for Trade, Ms. Regina Ombam, who underscored the importance of women strengthening their systems so they can compete effectively as the African Continental Free Trade Area is implemented.

KenTrade remains focused on facilitating export trade through strategic and structured collaborations that amplify collective efforts across the trade ecosystem and increase women’s participation in regional and global markets.

Can Kenya turn its leather wealth into real export growth?
Kenya has the livestock and the ambition. The question is whether businesses can navigate the paperwork fast enough to compete.
From 21–23 October, KenTrade and Partner government agencies met in Naivasha with industry players to focus on cutting the administrative burden facing leather exporters.
Organised under the and facilitated by the International Trade Centre through the EU-funded MARKUP II programme, the workshop brought together regulators and private-sector voices — including tanners, manufacturers and the Kenya Association of Manufacturers.
The opportunity is large. KNBS data shows roughly 13.7 million cattle, calves, sheep and goats were slaughtered in 2025. The government target is to grow the sector to KSh 120 billion and expand employment from about 17,000 to 100,000 jobs. That requires smoother processes, not just more production. See less

KenTrade’s review of Leather exports procedures shows why reform matters: a first-time exporter of leather articles currently faces 31 steps, while other leather products involve 11–26 steps depending on the product. Many of these steps involve duplication and unclear requirements across agencies.
Participants identified practical ways to clarify rules, remove overlap and improve coordination. Their recommendations now go to the relevant regulators.
Which of these would make the biggest difference for Kenya’s leather exporters?
