A silent tide is coming to take over the informal trade in Kenya. GOK and County Governments in collaboration with the world bank are undertaking a kes 33 billion project to construct modern, mega fresh produce markets across the country. The markets will come fully equipped with necessary infrastructure like cold storage facilities, loading bays for trucks, huge parking lots for customers.
As part of vision 2030, these projects form an important step in formalizing the informal traders who set up their trade on government land like road reserves, rail corridors and on the street walks.
