The EU and Kenya signed an EPA to boost bilateral trade in goods, increase investment flows, and contribute to sustainable economic growth.
The EPA provides a platform to support job creation on both sides, along with targeted cooperation to enhance Kenya’s economic development. It is the most ambitious trade deal ever signed by the EU with a developing country when it comes to sustainability provisions such as climate and environmental protection, labour rights and gender equality.
The signature took place during an official ceremony in Nairobi with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Kenyan President Dr. William Samoei Ruto.
