Kenya has not penetrated the Korean market for fresh produce because of poor momentum, Ambassador Mwende Mwinzi has said. She spoke during a virtual meeting with Fresh Produce Consortium of Kenya members led by its CEO Okisegere Ojepat on Monday. “Further, only 100kgs of broccoli have been exported to Korea for purposes of testing with no further requests made for Kenyan broccoli,” Mwinzi said in her presentation. Kisumu City manager Abala Wanga said the regional economic bloc is ready to join hands and ensure they export banana from Kisumu International Airport. He said the region already produces a lot of bananas and has the potential to directly export to South Korea.
