在北京2026年5月1日向53个非洲国家提出的零关税建议中,肯尼亚正在着手完成与中国的双边“早期收获”贸易协议,为茶叶、咖啡和鳄梨等关键出口品提供98.2%的免税准入。
Kenya is moving to finalize a bilateral "Early Harvest" trade deal with China, securing 98.2% duty-free access for key exports like tea, coffee, and avocados to China’s 1.4-billion-person market, amid Beijing’s May 1, 2026, zero-tariff offer to 53 African nations.
该协定旨在减少重大的贸易不平衡——肯尼亚在2023年从中国进口了4 590亿新元,而出口只有290亿新元——并促进农业增长和就业。
The agreement aims to reduce a major trade imbalance—where Kenya imported Sh459 billion from China in 2023 versus only Sh29 billion in exports—and boost agricultural growth and jobs.

Officials say the early harvest deal remains superior and complementary to the broader African Union initiative, serving as a foundation for a future comprehensive free trade agreement.
