Kenya and the US formally launched negotiations on July 8, 2020 to seal a Free Trade Agreement (FTA). It will be the first of its kind in sub-Saharan Africa. It is expected that this deal will form a model for other African countries upon the expiry of the African Growth and Opportunities Act (Agoa) in 2025.
