Salaam Microfinance Bank participated in the Kenya-Somalia Trade Week, organized and sponsored by Nation Media Group. As a bronze sponsor of the event, we secured a strategically placed booth near the venue’s entry, ensuring maximum visibility and engagement with attendees. This platform provided an excellent opportunity to showcase our products, including our digital app, Salaam Pay, and to connect with businesses and individuals keen on Shari’ah-compliant financial solutions.
The Kenya-Somalia Trade Week is a pivotal event fostering economic cooperation between Kenya and Somalia, facilitating cross-border trade, investment, and financial inclusion. For Salaam Microfinance Bank, the event underscored our commitment to supporting business growth within the Somali community in Kenya and beyond. It also aligned with our vision to drive financial empowerment through accessible and innovative banking solutions.
The event was officially launched by Kenya’s Cabinet Secretary for Trade and Industry, Hon. Lee Kinyanjui, with the Somali Ambassador to Kenya and Somalia’s Minister for Planning in attendance, alongside other high-profile dignitaries. Their presence highlighted the significance of Kenya-Somalia economic relations and the role financial institutions like Salaam Microfinance Bank play in strengthening these ties.
