Kenya to import
fertilizer
ISLAMABAD- Kenya Tea Board (KTB) has agreed to import
fertilizer and packaging/ packing material to bring balance in
the trade of both the countries. This was stated by Federal
Minister for Commerce, Industries and Production Abdul Razak
Dawood in a meeting with the visiting delegation of Kenya Tea
Board.
Dawood said that Pakistan was the biggest buyer of Kenyan tea
due to which the "balance of trade" was in favour of Kenya
which needed improvement through increasing imports by Kenya.
The minister said that both sides would work on the proposal
aimed at improving the trade balance. He further said the KTB
could promote Pakistani exports into Kenya by acting as
Pakistani spokesman.
Kenya can import raw material used in tea packaging and
fertilizer like NPK, Urea to be used in tea graders from
Pakistan, he added.
