Thanks to its strategic location near the Horn of Africa, its integration in the African Continental Free Trade Area, and the quality of its technology infrastructure, Kenya offers great business opportunities for companies wishing to expand their activity into Eastern Africa.
The country has one of the most attractive business environments in Sub-Saharan Africa and its local consumer market is rapidly growing.
One of the quickest ways to enter the Kenyan market is to hire local employees through the employee leasing services offered by FMC Group. These services allow businesses to expand into Kenya without setting up a local subsidiary. In this arrangement, the leasing company handles administrative tasks such as payroll and compliance, while the client company retains control over day-to-day operations and is responsible for the employee’s performance. This setup helps companies focus on their growth strategy and measure their business potential as they go, without batting an eye about the administrative management of employees.
