Company Registration

How youth-, women-, and PWD-owned businesses in Kamakis and Ruiru qualify for AGPO — and the extra edge it gives on Kiambu County-funded tenders. What AGPO Reserves for You Access to Government Procurement Opportunities (AGPO) requires every procuring entity in Kenya — including the County Government of Kiambu — to set aside at least 30% of its procurement spend for enterprises owned by youth, women, or persons with disabilities. Certification is what proves your business qualifies. The Local Edge: Devolved-Fund Preference AGPO’s regulations go further for citizen contractors based and operating in a given region: they’re given preference on procurement funded specifically by that county government or other devolved funds. For a Kamakis or Ruiru business, that means AGPO certification plus a Kiambu County Single Business Permit can genuinely outweigh a larger outside firm on county-funded work — the kind of road, market, or streetlighting tenders Kiambu County posts regularly. Who Qualifies Documents You’ll Need How to Apply Applications go through the AGPO portal and are free — the only real costs are the prerequisites: business registration and a Tax Compliance Certificate. You register an account, add your business details and category, upload the documents above, and submit. Applications are reviewed before a certificate is issued. Keeping Your Certification Active AGPO certification isn’t permanent — it needs to be kept current, and a lapsed certificate can cost you eligibility for a reserved tender mid-cycle, including a Kiambu County one you were positioned well for. → Company Registration & Compliance for Kamakis & Ruiru  → Contact Us
