Established on March 25, 2017, the Kenya China Chamber of Commerce (KCCC) aims to provide services and support for business relations between China and Kenya, and is committed to promoting friendly cooperation between the two countries, including cultural exchanges, business cooperation, trade promotion and investment services. The organization was established in the context of the current rising demand dynamics of China-Kenya economy and trade, representing the voices of Chinese businessmen - especially small and micro-enterprise practitioners - in Kenyan, in line with the needs of the economic and trade development of the two countries, and to make the economic activities of the Chinese businessmen in Kenyan more organized, institutionalized and standardized.

On August 8, 2023, the China General Chamber of Commerce in Kenya (CGCCK) and the National Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Kenya (NCCI-Kenya) signed an important cooperation agreement, which was signed by Dr. Erick Rutto, Chairman of the NCCI-Kenya and Mr. Chen Congcong, Chairman of the CGCC-Kenya, on behalf of the two organisations, respectively, in a landmark agreement aimed at strengthening trade relations and increasing investment, especially for the textile sector in the two counties of Kilifi and Machakos. The landmark agreement aims to strengthen trade relations and increase investment, particularly by creating 20,000 jobs for youth in the textile sector in Kilifi and Machakos counties.

Kenya's Minister of Commerce and Industry and Trade, Hon. Moses Kuria, has made it clear that all Chinese investors will be required to report to and be accredited by the Kenya-China Chamber of Commerce (KCCC) before they can do business in Kenya. This agreement is filed with the Ministry of Justice of Kenya and is valid for a long period of time. The agreement aims to jointly promote cooperation between the two countries in various fields to achieve mutual benefit and win-win situation.

In order to further strengthen the ties and communication between the two countries, KCCCI will open a new consulate in Guangzhou and establish a KCCCI Shenzhen Liaison Office in Shenzhen to facilitate Kenyan businessmen to go to China. These initiatives will help promote people-to-people exchanges, information exchanges and resource sharing between the two countries, creating more opportunities and advantages for business cooperation between the two sides.

The China Chamber of Commerce in Kenya has a strong influence and appeal in Kenya. It not only represents the interests of thousands of Chinese entrepreneurs and investors in Kenya, but also the honor and charm of the Chinese nation and Chinese culture in the African continent. It maintains a good relationship with the Kenyan government, social organizations, media and other circles, and has won their trust and support. It has also established a wide network of cooperation with business organizations in other countries and regions to explore more markets and opportunities for both China and Kenya. It serves as a bridge and link between China and Kenya, and is a model of China-Africa friendship and cooperation.

We believe that under the leadership and promotion of the China General Chamber of Commerce in Kenya, business cooperation between China and Kenya will become closer and deeper, bringing more benefits and happiness to the people of both countries.
