Kenya has recorded a 20 percent increase in trade with the European Union (EU) since signing an Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) two years ago.

Outgoing EU Head of Delegation to Kenya Henriette Geiger attributed the growth to greater value addition and more aggressive private sector-driven marketing by Nairobi in Europe.
