Journal Article
Mobile enterprises and markets in Central Province, Kenya
1980
Overview
Mobile enterprises are a significant part of the rural market system in Central Province, Kenya. This pattern differs from West African periodic markets. Existing central place and classical firm-location models based on West African examples are inadequate to explain completely the enterprise mobility patterns in Central Province and perhaps elsewhere in East Africa. Historical factors, increase of small part-time and mobile vendors, and their limited mobility account for the distinctiveness of this East African pattern. The backward-sloping supply curve is used to analyze mobile enterprises in Central Province.
