Traders at the Wakulima Market in Nairobi are hopeful that the reopening of restaurants will lead to more sales of fresh produce.

The sellers who had reduced their stock to almost a quarter due to the stay-at-home guidelines on Covid-19 issued by the government in March were this week working on increasing their supplies without incurring losses.
