In line with the Governor's promise to promote enterpreneurship through the establishment of modern kiosks, County Trade Department, has distributed 52 of 64 complete phase 1 modern kiosks to Gitimbine and Tuskys Stage small scale traders.

Over 500 successful applicants went through an open, free and fair balloting process at Kinoru Stadium.

Developed to bolster the growth of small businesses, hawkers and people with disabilities, the 64 are strategically positioned to help grow Meru's economy and uplift 'Mama mboga.'

However, election and allocation for the12 kiosks located at Makutano has been postponed following a conflict among the parties interested to be allocated the kiosks.
