launch of a new office aimed at strengthening insurance service delivery for businesses and residents.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe move signals the firm\u2019s push to tap into Thika\u2019s manufacturing cluster and the expanding network of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that dominate the town\u2019s commercial landscape.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThika, a key economic hub in Kiambu County, hosts a significant number of agro-processing firms, manufacturing industries, and retail businesses that face operational risks ranging from equipment damage to business interruptions and market uncertainties.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24711\"

insurance solutions tailored to the resilience and expansion needs of SMEs operating in dynamic business environments.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nKuria said the strategy is anchored on strengthening the sustainability of local enterprises by providing risk protection products that support business continuity, investment confidence, and long-term commercial growth.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u201cWe are intentional about supporting SMEs by developing solutions that protect their operations, sustain their expansion, and enhance their resilience against economic shocks,\u201d he said.\r\n\r\n

direct engagement with clients.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nBy establishing a physical presence in the town, the company is seeking to strengthen distribution channels while positioning itself within one of the country\u2019s fastest-growing industrial corridors.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe expansion is part of the firm\u2019s broader strategy to grow its footprint across emerging commercial centres as it competes for a share of Kenya\u2019s evolving corporate and SME insurance market.\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SanlamAllianz General Insurance has expanded its operational footprint in
