Mutai, and a delegation from the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI), led by Chairman of Pak–Kenya Business Council of FPCCI Khalil Paracha. The meeting focused on strengthening bilateral trade and investment relations between Kenya and Pakistan through deeper collaboration between the two chambers.

Discussions centered on advancing business-to-business linkages, expanding trade volumes, and identifying investment opportunities in key growth sectors including agriculture, textiles, pharmaceuticals, and construction materials. Both sides expressed a strong commitment to promoting mutual trade interests by organizing joint trade missions, business forums, and exhibitions aimed at enhancing market access and partnership development between enterprises from both nations.

The meeting also emphasized the importance of operationalizing the existing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between KNCCI and FPCCI. This will be achieved through the establishment of a joint working framework to implement SME capacity-building initiatives, facilitate information sharing, and support the growth of cross-border enterprises.

As a way forward, the two chambers agreed to form a joint working group that will coordinate upcoming trade engagements, exchange trade and investment data, and identify priority sectors for collaboration.

The engagement reaffirmed the mutual commitment of KNCCI and FPCCI to strengthen commercial cooperation and promote long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships between the business communities of Kenya and Pakistan — paving the way for enhanced bilateral trade and sustainable economic growth.
