Industry Principal Secretary Juma Mukhwana has warned that poor feeder roads are derailing industrial activity and hurting investors in Athi River.

Speaking during a factory tour and stakeholder engagement at the Softcare Kenya plant, Mukhwana said inadequate infrastructure, water shortages, and unreliable electricity supply remain major challenges for both local and international investors.
