Kenya Embassy in Washington Dc has been invited to come and talk about business opportunities in investing in Kenyans well as extending the invitation to other Kenyans within their docket.
The AGOA initiative has not been effectively utilized by the Kenyan farmers organization and Farming product industries.Largely because of lack of information, and monopoly tendency of those already exploiting it.We will be putting more emphasis in this area by encouraging the North Carolina people to use that opportunity to import from Kenya those commodities covered by AGOA from Kenya.
Also in view of the expected direct flights between Kenya & USA almost becoming a reality. Kenyans should position themselves to be able to utilize these services and also create business enough to sustain the initiative.
Kenya-USA tourism should be away to go.This should be encouraged and Kenyans living in the US communities should take lead in marketing and advocating for their country.
Other products like Flowers, horticultural products,tea,clothing, mineral etc are the purpose of the exhibition.
We also look forward to inviting the Kenyan runners to participate in Oak marathon in Nov 2016.
Groups that would like to share Kenya rich culture are invited also to entertain the citizens of North Carolina and the surrounding states.

Our appeal also at this point is to ask for other Kenyan community leaders and business organization in other parts of USA who would want to partner with us to do the exhibitions in their cities.
