Negotiations between Nairobi and Dar es Salaam seem to have paid off with exports to Tanzania increasing between April and June 2018.

Latest figures from the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) indicate that the value of exports to Dar increased by more than a third to Sh7.4 billion in the second quarter of the year compared to exports of Sh5.5 billion in the same period last year.
