Nakuru county residents are set to benefit after a group of foreign investors expressed interest in investing in the county.
This follows a meeting between the county Governor Lee Kinyanjui and Merging Mundos-Kenya director Ms Zayna Khanbai, who paid the governor a courtesy call in his office at the Nakuru county headquarters in Nakuru town Monday.
She was accompanied by a delegation of investors from Argentina and Jamaica eyeing the county as their investment destination, with the team expressing interest in the county's agricultural sector.
The team of investors is also seeking to establish farm input outlets in the county.
''Earlier this morning I had a word with Merging Mundos-Kenya director Ms Zaynah Khanbhai during a courtesy call at the county headquarters,'' the governor wrote on his Facebook page.
''Ms Zaynah led a delegation of investors from Argentina and Jamaica who have key interest in setting up companies in Nakuru on agricultural management systems, support to extension services and farm input,'' he added.
This could mean more employment opportunities, new foreign farming technology and practices and new agricultural ideas.
