Kisumu County’s economy has lost some momentum due to COVID-19 but remains robust nonetheless supported by strong domestic demand. The potential for exports to the regional markets is also high but needs to be developed.
The County Re-engineering and Recovery Strategy 2020/21-2022/23, embeds the principles of self-reliance driven by the private sector. Dominated by micro-enterprises (89.2%) and small farm holders (99.0%), the CGK intends to boost their activities to take advantage of global recoveries to pre-crisis GDP levels.
