Speaking at the official handover of the construction of the Economic Stimulus Programme (ESP) markets in Ainabkoi and Kapseret constituencies, the Governor reiterated that the initiative seeks to empower traders, create employment opportunities, and enhance local economic growth by bringing modern trading facilities closer to the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The markets, established in partnership with the national government, are designed to boost rural economies by supporting Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Deputy Governor Evans Kapkea assured the contractor of the county government’s full cooperation to facilitate the successful completion of the projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ongoing ESP market constructions include Kipkaren River, Matharu, Kesses, and Moiben, while Cherus is among the areas earmarked for future development.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
