Kenia PIB - Tasa de crecimiento anual

Kenya's economy advanced by 4.9% in Q1 2025, after a 5.1% expansion in Q4 2024. Growth was broad-based, with particularly strong performance in the key agricultural sector, where output rose by 6.0% thanks to favorable weather conditions. Timely rains in late 2024 and early 2025 led to better harvests of tea, coffee, and maize. Alongside this, government initiatives—like farm input subsidies and the Hustler Fund's affordable loans—further enhanced productivity across the sector. Other contributors included ICT (5.8%), wholesale and retail trade (5.4%), real estate (5.3%), financial & insurance (5.1%), and public administration (6.5%). Professional services and transport grew by 4.6% and 3.8%, respectively, while accommodation & food services added 4.1%. Mining surged 10%, construction increased 3%, and manufacturing rose 2.1%. On a seasonally adjusted basis, the GDP rose by 0.8% in Q1, the least in a year, following a downwardly revised 1.7% rise in Q4 2024.
