A group of 100 NCBA Bank commercial and SME customers are currently in China to explore the business opportunities offered by the Asian economic giant.

The 12-day trip, part of NCBA’s ongoing market exposure program that began in 2016, is designed to empower SME and commercial enterprise clients by exposing them to global trade connectivity, emerging markets, and diverse industry opportunities.

During the trip, NCBA business customers will source trading equipment and goods while gaining firsthand insights into the latest business trends, technological advancements, and market dynamics in China.

Participants will engage with industry leaders, visit key business districts, and explore opportunities in sectors such as green energy, manufacturing, technology, and logistics in major cities including Hong Kong, Foshan, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.

“NCBA’s commitment is to support the growth of Kenya’s economy. SMEs and commercial enterprises play a crucial role in this development,” said Tirus Mwithiga, Group Director of Retail Banking at NCBA.

“We have designed tailored financial solutions, experiences, and opportunities for our customers to help them scale their businesses,” he added.

“We are excited to offer our customers this invaluable opportunity to explore new business avenues and establish connections in one of the world’s leading trade hubs. We believe the growth of our customers’ businesses through this global market exposure will directly contribute to both the Bank’s and the country’s economic growth.”
