South Africa reopens market to Kenya's $1.7 billion tea market
Kenya and South Africa seek to deepen commercial ties and unlock opportunities for businesses operating across the continent.
Trade tensions between the two countries have periodically flared in recent years over market access and tariff policies, creating uncertainty for exporters and investors.
The market reopening provides a massive boost to Kenya's vital tea sector, which generated $1.7 billion in total export earnings in 2025.
