The Kenyan government has very slightly reduced a few of the restrictions over the weekend, which gives hope for the upcoming horticultural exhibition in Naivasha, the Naivasha Horticultural Fair. The 2020 edition of this outdoor event is planned for September 18-19, but they are waiting for the official go-ahead from the government.

"So far, bookings are good, and if we feel it is safe enough and if the government gives us the go-ahead, we will do it", says Richard McGonnell, Chairman of the fair. And he has high hopes for the fair to continue as nearly all the “international” companies have a presence/are represented in Kenya, "so there is very little outside/travel influence".

They will wait another 5 weeks before confirming or delaying the 2020 N.H. Fair.
