KAM Chair, @MucaiKunyiha - Manufacturing has proven to be resilient. We have not had a shortage of essential supplies during the pandemic. We have kept supply chains moving. Different industries have, however, been impacted differently.

KAM Chair,@MucaiKunyiha - For example, uniform manufacturers lost markets because schools have remained closed but they repurposed their production lines to produce masks. #COVID19KE has done away with the gains we had achieved in our economy.

KAM Chair, @MucaiKunyiha - The longer the pandemic lasts, the more we will be impacted. We need to adapt to the situation to #KeepKenyaMoving as well as meet the market needs. We shall need innovation to pull through the current crisis.
