Machakos County is strategically located 64 KM (30 minutes) from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, a regional gateway that connects Kenya to the regional and global markets. Machakos is also located along the Mombasa – Kampala highway.
The strategic and direct infrastructure development effort by the County in the transport sector has been complimented by projects such as the Standard Gauge Railway and railway terminals. Compared to other food-basket areas in Kenya, these high frequency connections facilitate hustle free imports and exports.
