The name Kenslov is derived from company’s Kenyan – Slovak cooperation. The firm started
as the main partner of the Slovak training firm Slovken. The two partners exchange their
products, with Kenslov exporting majority of its products to Slovakia. The boys from Kenslov
are also the main video makers for the Sote ICT project. Marketing skills of the students are
over average, with the firm taking the 3rd place for Best Marketing at the trade faire in April
2015. Still the boys are in the process of acquiring a deeper understanding of business
processes, work within departments or adding value through CSR. They also need to
improve their SWOT analysis and a business plan. Kenslov products are regularly promoted
in Slovakia and Czech Republic by the partner firm Slovken, through various student trade
faires, presentations or catalogues.
