Research and Markets: Kenya Freight Transport Report 2011

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/557b08/kenya_freight_tran) has announced the addition of the "Kenya Freight Transport Report 2011" report to their offering.

The Kenya Freight Transport Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, freight transportation associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Kenya's freight transportation industry.

The launch of the common market for the East African Community (EAC) in July 2010 has been generally thought of by BMI as a good move for industry and the economy alike. However, an infrastructure deficit has been pointed to frequently as one major obstacle to the benefits of the common market. The EAC, which includes Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda, has a severe transport infrastructure deficit. In the World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report, four of the five countries rank 90 or below (out of 133) for overall competitiveness of infrastructure, and one (Rwanda) does not appear.

Congestion at ports, aging rail infrastructure, and damaged and congested roads, present a major impediment to the benefits of doing away with border tariffs. The added cost of transporting goods in the region is still a major hindrance to the business environment and economy, and one that a common union will not alleviate. However, news that the EAC is looking to tackle the infrastructure deficit is emerging.
