This is a list of the top 10 friendliest counties to do business in Kenya. Many articles have been written before about the best towns in Kenya to do business, counties where it’s easiest to do business and even the best towns for start-up success and so on and so forth.
But what these websites have forgotten to tell you is how exactly is it easy to do business in which county/town; take this example, Kisumu county is very friendly when it comes to dealing with construction permits especially for commercial structure while Nairobi is absolutely hostile about the same. On the other hand, starting a business is generally easy in Eldoret in Uasin Gishu while it is worse in Kakamega and Narok.
So it’s misleading to just state that business is likely to thrive in Nairobi without giving all the reasons and stating facts why it can pick up and thrive.
The list below shows which Counties/towns are friendliest to start a business while ranking them on the friendliness to start a business, dealing with construction permits, registering property and enforcing contracts.Have a look
