Strengthening International Trade Partnerships
KIFWA today paid a courtesy visit to the High Commission of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka in Nairobi following an invitation to explore strategic collaboration opportunities in the logistics and trade sector. The engagement was held in preparation for Sri Lanka Expo 2027, an international trade exhibition that will feature a dedicated Logistics Services Pavilion and provide a platform for business networking and investment.
The discussions focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation between Kenya and Sri Lanka, promoting greater engagement between logistics stakeholders, and exploring opportunities for KIFWA members to participate in pre-Expo business forums and the Sri Lanka Expo 2027 delegation. The meeting also underscored the strategic importance of the Mombasa–Colombo trade corridor in enhancing regional and global supply chain connectivity, as highlighted in the invitation from the High Commission.
KIFWA appreciates the warm reception extended by the High Commission of Sri Lanka and looks forward to fostering a mutually beneficial partnership that will create new opportunities for knowledge exchange, business collaboration, and international trade.
As the voice of Kenya's freight forwarding and warehousing industry, KIFWA remains committed to building strategic partnerships that enhance trade facilitation, strengthen global market linkages, and deliver value to its members.
