Navigating Trade Options: The EAC-EU EPA Workshop Insights

The 6th June 2013 workshop organized by the EU Delegation to Kenya focused on the future of the East African Community (EAC) and its Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) with the European Union (EU). With 25% of Kenyan exports affected, the discussion highlighted the significance of choosing between EPA and the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP). Key topics included tariff erosion, the critical role of the flower industry in Kenya's economy, and the investment potential in this sector. The workshop emphasized the importance of timely decisions for boosting trade and economic growth in Kenya.
