𝗨𝗩𝗘𝗧𝗘, 𝗞𝗜𝗟𝗢𝗠𝗘: 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟮𝗻𝗱, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 ~Traders in Uvete Market on Thursday engaged the County Government of Makueni on a proposed dedicated market day aimed at attracting more buyers, boosting business and expanding market opportunities for local farmers.

Led by Trade, Marketing, Industry, Culture and Tourism CECM Irene Makau Mwilu, the engagement sought traders’ views on the proposal and how best to strengthen the market’s role in driving local economic growth.

The initiative aligns with the county’s mandate (County Government Act) to support trade and market development, building on Makueni’s network of more than 46 markets with dedicated market days.

Makau said the proposed market day would improve access to markets for agricultural produce, increase trading opportunities and enhance incomes for farmers and traders.
