HISTORY OF NAKURU COUNTY
Nakuru as we know it is a busy, commercial, breathtakingly beautiful and opportunity- filled county. The origins are astounding of how Nakuru went from being a municipality to the big county it is today.
Nakuru Overview :
Nakuru is a county Kenya located in the former Rift Valley province and the economic hub of a farming area. The city of Nakuru is located in the Republic of Kenya’s Rift Valley. The Maasai phrase ”Naguuro”, which means a dusty place, is where the it gets its name. The British founded the town in 1904.
Colonial Times :
During the colonial Administration in Kenya, the British established Nakuru as a part of the White highlands, due to the favorable climate and fertile land and may settled there. From that point on, Nakuru soon expanded into a large city that would eventually become the Rift Valley Province’s capital and the hub for the other 14 counties in the area.
Nakuru 3 Key Sectors :
The three main sectors of the Nakuru economy are manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism. With numerous small farms and big agricultural operations, the area surrounding the city is renowned for its enormous agricultural potential. Coffee, wheat, barley, maize, beans, and potatoes are the principal crops farmed in the area around Nakuru and sold there. The principal raw material for the manufacturing sectors in Nakuru and Nairobi is provided by the crops. These businesses include grain ginneries and flour mills. Also, the inputs for numerous milk processing factories located across the city come from dairy farming, which is a significant economic activity.
As the country expanded, Nakuru Town also thrived as a result of the railroad’s operations. These promoted the development of business hubs along the railway.
