Improve Supply Chains for Economic Recovery

Abstract

During this period of COVID – 2019 all industries that contribute to the country economic growth e.g manufacturing sector, agricultural sector, health sector is experiencing supply chain vulnerability. In the health sector for instance we have seen the government move swiftly to source for health care equipment e.g PPEs, Ventilators, testing reagents and testing apparatus. The horticulture industry has not been left behind since no much business is going on in our export countries such as Europe due to the lockdown to contain the spread of COVID – 19. Still there is no inter - county trading in Kenya because of partial lockdown as one of the major mitigating measures to contain the COVID – 19 in the country. This also has led to many job losses in the country
