contents <p>Competition law in Eastern African Community (EAC) countries is a critical area of legal development, particularly in Kenya, where it has been implemented since . The study employs an ethnographic approach involving interviews, document reviews, and observations in legal institutions across Kenya and other EAC countries. Data was collected from government agencies responsible for competition law enforcement. A notable finding is that while all EAC countries have established competition laws, the implementation varies significantly, with some countries showing stronger compliance rates than others. The analysis reveals distinct challenges and opportunities in implementing effective competition law frameworks across the region. Key regulatory gaps are identified, particularly in enforcing antitrust regulations effectively. Policy recommendations suggest enhancing transparency in enforcement practices, promoting public awareness campaigns, and strengthening inter-agency cooperation for a more robust legal framework.</p>
