Manufacturers That Left Kenya For Ethiopia, Egypt & Other Countries For Various Reasons

@Ndindu

Philips used to make bulbs in Kenya, they also left, now we have DP Light from China and Vitron Electronics are assembling TVs here in Kenya. But overall more have closed down than newly opened.

It means we cannot beat China and others in manufacturing. That means we move on to something else to make money

Energy costs hatari. Why doesn’t the government think about this?
Kuna hydropower as their main energy source, which is also our main energy source.
How then is energy cheaper in Ethiopia than Kenya to the point that they are able to sell us cheaper power?

They have more water and larger dams

Eveready Kenya should have realised that they were in the energy storage business not just selling mawe ya tochi. They should have ventured into car batteries, solar batteries, solar panels, solar water pumps, wind generators, lithium batteries, inverters etc. Their competitors are still doing well because they diversified.

Wacha niulize na sinkwa ubaya. Since you know so much about this sector why don’t you do what Eveready didn’t do and show us?

Ama it’s always someone else’s responsibility?
