What makes selling to government & public sector institutions difficult?
Kenyan SMEs face specific hurdles when targeting government & public sector buyers. Fanel was built to solve them.
Government procurement follows strict PPRA rules and budget cycles — missing the annual procurement plan window means waiting a full financial year.
AGPO preferences create both opportunities and intense competition, with youth, women, and PWD categories each having dedicated quotas.
Payment timelines stretch 60 to 120 days from invoice submission, requiring vendors to manage cash flow carefully.
