commitment to supporting Kenya\u2019s agricultural heartlands and improving access to financial services.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nLocated at Njue Plaza along the Embu\u2013Nairobi Highway, the new branch is strategically positioned within Embu\u2019s bustling commercial district.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nEmbu is widely recognised for its strong agricultural base, vibrant cooperative movement and active trading community, making it a key economic centre in the Eastern region and a natural hub for agribusiness and enterprise financing.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

range of retail and business banking services, including personal and business loans, and digital banking support to individuals, farmers, MSMEs, cooperatives and corporate clients in Embu and the neighbouring regions.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe branch will focus on agribusiness financing for Embu\u2019s coffee, tea, macadamia, horticulture and dairy sectors and asset financing for tractors and farm equipment.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24455\"

with women benefiting from Faidi Dada and customised group lending products to improve access to credit and expand their businesses.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSpeaking during the opening of the branch, Kingdom Bank Managing Director, Anthony Mburu, said, \u201cEmbu represents the strength of Kenya\u2019s agricultural and cooperative economy.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img

hardworking farmers, entrepreneurs and key institutions who play a critical role in food security, regional trade and public services.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img
