KENYA · GUIDE 0256 · EDITION 4.2
Raincoat retail in Kenya
Raincoats sold by size, coverage and supplier-supported water-resistance specification.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional RAIN-256 receives ten raincoats RC01–RC10. RC02 card records exact maker/model, labelL, finished chest width 64 cm, back-neck-to-hem 112 cm and centre-back sleeve 88 cm. Supplier provides no verified waterproof rating, so listing says raincoat with unverified performance, not certified rider PPE or guaranteed waterproof. Any genuine model specification is quoted with its original scope.
Who is the first customer?
Commuters, riders and outdoor workers.
Test the offer
Test sample closure and coverage in intended use, without inventing waterproof ratings.
