Nairobi County has announced the development of a new logistics park near the city, which has already begun attracting interest from global investors. The project is part of the county’s Annual Development Plan 2025/2026, aimed at strengthening Nairobi’s role as East Africa’s premier trade and logistics hub.
The logistics park will feature state-of-the-art warehousing, cold storage facilities, smart transport links, and green energy integration. Designed to support both local and international supply chains, the park will provide businesses with efficient access to regional markets while reducing operational costs. Nairobi County partnered with private investors, global logistics firms, and infrastructure developers to co-finance the project, ensuring world-class standards.
Industry leaders welcomed the initiative, noting that Nairobi’s strategic location and expanding transport reforms make it an ideal gateway for regional trade. Analysts argue that the logistics park is transformative, embedding efficiency and sustainability into Nairobi’s commercial ecosystem while complementing earlier initiatives such as the Transport Reforms (November 22, 2025) and the Industrial Infrastructure PPP (November 27, 2025). Together, these efforts create a comprehensive framework for competitiveness and growth.
Looking ahead, Nairobi County plans to integrate AI-powered logistics analytics, blockchain-based supply chain certification, and smart tolling systems into the park. Officials believe that by embedding advanced technologies into logistics infrastructure, Nairobi can accelerate job creation, attract foreign investment, and reinforce its role as East Africa’s leading logistics hub.
