Kenya’s National AfCTA Implementation Strategy 2022-2027

This strategy is to leverage deeper integration within the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) framework to expand Kenya’s trade and investment in Africa, support structural transformation and foster economic growth and sustainable development.

The National AfCFTA Implementation Strategy (2022- 2027) was developed to deliver the expected outcomes of AfCFTA. The strategy is anchored within Kenya’s national trade and development frameworks and aspires to contribute towards national development. This strategy outlines a broad list of prioritised AfCFTA sectors for merchandise goods, services and regional value chains that build on three sectors identified in Kenya’s Integrated National Export Development and Promotion Strategy.

In addition, the strategy encompasses a vision and mission as well as seven strategic objectives born out of a robust situational analysis of Kenya’s current production systems and trade patterns, Kenya’s policy, regulatory and institutional framework, and the instruments provided under the AfCFTA.
