I don't suggest that you do this.  Its not difficult to register a company, but you should get a lawyer to draw up the Articles of Association.  You will need to obtain a PIN from Kenya Revenue Authority, before you register.  You will also need a Class H Work Permit before you can legally trade. 

Do thorough research, before anything else as you will be entering a highly competitive sector.

i shoud have said do not get involved in RED TAPE,.undevloped counires have so much petty officialdom and lawyers making money on things u can do you self ,.also you never know who to bribe inb kenya,.yeh start trading first without and feel the waters before jumping in,.

I was writing from experience, Suirvale, having gone through the process of registering a company and obtaining a PIN - both very straightforward and not particularly expensive.  Kenyan law is very similar to UK law, after all.

You could probably do it all without a lawyer, but a good lawyer knows the right language to use etc, which I felt was worth it.

The Kenyan authorities are increasingly interested in illegal working/trading and in a highly competitive field, such as womens clothing, there would be no shortage of 'whistle blowers'.
