New Holland Agriculture’s local distributor in Kenya, CMC Motors Group Limited (CMC), has announced a major shift in its business strategy, which has seen it move away from the mass-market passenger vehicle segment in Kenya.
For over 75 years, CMC Motors Group Limited is an established name in automotive and agricultural sector with presence in East Africa including Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. Today, CMC continues to invest and refocus growth efforts towards the agriculture mechanization.
CMC’s change in strategy follows the Government agenda to transform and rapidly grow Kenya’s agriculture sector, which is the backbone of the East African economy, contributing approximately 33% of Kenya’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP). CMC aims to further strengthen its agriculture sector interests in the region with plans to expand and continue selling its agricultural machinery portfolio.
