Kenya is taking decisive steps to improve the operational efficiency at the Port of Mombasa, aiming to persuade Uganda, Rwanda, and South Sudan to utilize this strategic maritime gateway more effectively. By streamlining clearing processes and introducing technological advancements in billing and cargo tracking, Kenya seeks to enhance the ease of trade for its landlocked neighbors.


Infrastructure Upgrades and Technological Innovations

The adoption of cutting-edge technologies at the Mombasa Port is central to Kenya's strategy to boost its appeal. Enhanced cargo processing systems and the incorporation of digital tracking are expected to minimize delays and losses, thereby ensuring a smoother trade flow. This technological leap is poised to redefine the logistics landscape, offering unparalleled efficiency and reliability.


Revitalizing Rail Connectivity

A key component of Kenya's outreach involves the revival of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) project, in collaboration with Uganda. This infrastructure project aims to establish a direct rail link from the Mombasa Port to Kampala, with future extensions to Rwanda and South Sudan. By improving rail connectivity, Kenya and Uganda are laying the groundwork for a more integrated and efficient regional transport network.
