In a dynamic move to revitalise Kenya's economic landscape, over 13 counties have embarked on the establishment of County Aggregation and Industrial Parks (CAIPs). Spearheaded by the Ministry of Investment, Trade, and Industry, this collaborative effort aims to propel manufacturing in counties. The signing of the Intergovernmental Partnership Agreement on November 22 between the ministry and Governors marked a milestone in enhancing collaboration between counties and the national government in realising the CAIPs vision.
The first CAIP was launched in Nyamira County by President William Ruto in August and similar ones have since been started in other counties. The CAIPs hold immense potential for fostering economic growth, particularly in counties heavily reliant on agriculture.
