Meeting in Kenya on food processing trade—from villages to foreign markets—under Modi’s guidance
Under the guidance of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and the directives of Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Shri Keshav Prasad Maurya, efforts are being intensified to connect the state’s agriculture, horticultural production, and food processing sectors with international markets. New avenues for cooperation between India and Kenya are being explored with the objective of providing global recognition to products from Uttar Pradesh—including those from farmers, self-help groups, women entrepreneurs, and the food processing industry—and expanding export opportunities.
In this context, a significant meeting was held involving India’s High Commissioner to Kenya, Shri Adarsh, and Deputy High Commissioner, Shri Sushil Prasad, alongside Uttar Pradesh Additional Chief Secretary (ACS) Shri B.L. Meena, the International Potato Center (CIP) Asia Director Dr. Sudhanshu Singh, and the CIP India Country Manager Dr. Neeraj Sharma. The meeting featured detailed discussions on enhancing cooperation between Uttar Pradesh and Kenya in the fields of agriculture, horticulture, and food processing, as well as integrating the industrial capabilities of both regions.
