Importers of second hand cars in Kenya could be facing billions of shillings in losses following revelations that the pre-shipment motor vehicle inspection tender could have been awarded to a company that does not have the capacity to inspect motor vehicles.
New allegations in the controversial Sh3 billion tender, awarded to Japanese firm, Quality Inspection Services Inc Japan (QISJ) by Kenya Bureau of Standards (Kebs) last month indicate that QISJ is a sister company to the largest exporter of second hand cars to Kenya.
