The 7thInternational Pharma Expo, East Africa Pharma Expo 2023, will take place in Nairobi, Kenya from October 3rd to 4th. It will exclusively focus on East African pharma manufacturing industries, and will be supported by Kenya's Pharmaceutical Industry to create an ideal platform for meeting the target audience in one place.
EAST AFRICA PHARMA EXPO 2023 and EAST AFRICA LAB EXPO 2023 will co-locate at the same venue. EAST AFRICA LAB EXPO 2023 offers innovative solutions from leading market players for buyers in the medical technology industry across East Africa. These buyers are actively seeking new products, equipment, services, and solutions to stay up-to-date with industry trends.
Kenya, the second largest economy in East Africa, has experienced remarkable economic growth in recent years. With a GDP of $110 billion in 2021, the country has made significant investments in infrastructure, agriculture, healthcare, housing and manufacturing. Kenya's vision is to become a newly industrialized nation by 2030, and it has emerged as an economic leader in the region.
India and Kenya share a dynamic and expanding trade relationship, encompassing various sectors of the economy. The bilateral trade volume between the two nations reached approximately USD 2.95 billion from April-February 2022-23.
The engineering sector plays a significant role in the bilateral trade between India and Kenya, accounting for over 34% of the total merchandise trade.
India’s engineering exports to Kenya for 2021-22 recorded US$ 901.4 million, registering a growth of more than 33% over 2020-21. India’s major engineering exports to Kenya include Iron & Steel, Industrial Machinery for dairy, agriculture, food processing, textiles, paper, chemicals, etc. Two and Three Wheelers, Motor Vehicle /Cars and Products of Iron and Steel.
In case of medical devices, lab instruments, healthcare which is the focus product of the East Africa Pharma, India’s exports to Kenya was USD 14.8 million during 2021.
India - one of the strongest pharma-economy across the world has emerged as single point resource for Pharma Machineries and Engineering Equipments in the world pharma markets.
Looking to the role played by the Indian pharmaceutical industry in global markets, India is slowly turning in to a ‘Pharma Capital’ of the world. The regulatory standards are meeting the high level parameters ensuring very high quality pharma production meeting the international regulations.
Kenya and the wider East African region offer a huge amount of potential for the Indian exporters. Kenya is the highest trading country in the East African region and is the gateway to the entire East & the Central African region having the business port- Mombasa.
Kenya is a part of three major regional economic communities of the African continent-EAC (East African Community), COMESA (Common Market for East and Southern African countries) and SADC (Southern Africa Development Community).Kenya’s membership in these regional integration would provide an expanded market and a huge potential for the Indian companies in various sectors.Thus there lies a huge untapped market for India, which is yet to be explored in Kenya. Thus India should find out opportunities to negotiate more trade deals with Kenya to increase its market share viz-a-viz China.
