KLMC links its members to both local and international markets. Inorder to enhance marketing strategy for livestock and its products. , KLMC is collaborating with other stakeholders and has developed market information system that provides information to the producers and traders across the counties.
KLMC is undertaking raw data collection in 40 strategic markets on prices and volume. The information is passed at the right time to the producers at the grassroots so that they can make informed decisions on the sale of their livestock. This is intended to cut off the middlemen who exploit the ignorance of livestock producers and also to increase the profit margins for traders in livestock and their product.

Cattle rustling practices amongst the pastoral communities have had negative impacts on livestock trade and have largely contributed to poor and stagnating lifestyles. Lack of livestock identification and traceability systems have further compounded the problem and contributed to making cattle rustling a lucrative livestock business activity. This has meant the larger population cannot engage in meaningful economic activities. Community livelihood in the county of Turkana is characterized by pasture related conflicts and lack of food; exemplified by a large malnourished population with children and youth suffering most.
In view of the above challenges, Kenya Livestock Marketing Council; with the support of the Kenya Feed the Future Innovative Engine (KFIE) implemented a one year pilot project on Livestock Identification and Traceability System (LITS) to address the challenges and specifically for cattle as a start in Turkana County. The intention of the project was to create a Turkana County livestock database of cattle and cattle owners while tagging animals with tamper proof tags and branding simultaneously. This is a project which was implemented with the support of all the livestock stakeholders at the county.
