Doing business in Kenya

Hi all
I am currently completing an assignment on doing business in Kenya. I need to identify the cultural and business challenges that would be faced with the commencement of a business in the country.

Any tips or guidance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Just Google that topic the resources are numerous. eg, i got this
http://www.doingbusiness.org/data/explo … ies/kenya/ and this http://ikm.co.ke/wp-content/uploads/201 … iness.pdf.
Both the procedural and legal aspects present various challenges including the time it takes to register, etc
But it also depends on what kind of business you want to do.
You could email me if you need further advice lizygish@yahoo.com

legal hurdles such as stringent laws and beuracratic incorporation processes.

Immgration & work permit legalities
Opening a bank account
Starting business with a local
Identifying the nature of business, how to get market and supply.
Customs laws!

Hi All

I am currently an MBA student. My thesis is about South African entrepreneurs in Kenya. I wish to find out if you do business in Kenya so that I can send you a short questionnaire that will help me to collect some data on the experiences of South Africans doing business in Kenya.
Alternatively, I would be grateful if you could put me in touch with someone who falls within that criteria.
