Kenya mulls adopting Chinese packaging concept to boost trade

NAIROBI, Dec. 13 (Xinhua) -- Kenya on Wednesday said that it plans to borrow the Chinese concept of training packers to gain from trade in horticultural commodities at the world market.

Cornelly Serem, chairman of the Agriculture and Food Authority (AFA), said that substandard packaging that is attributed to the lack of training of packers is to blame for Kenya's loss in securing the international market for its horticultural produce.
