The team began its tour at Buffalo Farm, associated with veteran farmer Mzee Killi, where the investors explored agricultural production, mechanisation and opportunities for value addition to enhance productivity and improve returns for farmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The delegation later visited Macefood, a food-processing enterprise specialising in value addition, particularly in vegetables and other food products.

The team also visited railway facilities to assess transport and logistics infrastructure that could support agricultural trade, facilitate the movement of goods and strengthen links between producers and markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visit forms part of Uasin Gishu County\u2019s efforts to attract international investors and establish strategic partnerships that can stimulate economic growth, create employment and expand markets for locally produced goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna Ba\u0144kowska, Deputy Marshal of the West Pomeranian Region, and comprises representatives of companies operating in sectors including agricultural machinery, fertilisers, food-processing equipment, railway engineering, cybersecurity and other industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through these engagements, the county seeks to showcase its agricultural potential, promote local enterprises and identify opportunities for investment in production, processing and value addition, positioning Uasin Gishu as a destination for mutually beneficial international business partnerships.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
