    Kenya’s listed Telco Safaricom (NSE:SCOM) has partnered with AliExpress, the business-to-consumer e-commerce marketplace of Alibaba, to allow Kenyans shop on its platform and pay with M-Pesa.

    The partnership targets micro-traders in the country who source for goods and other supplies from manufacturers in China and signifies Safaricom’s continued push to position M-Pesa as a global mobile money transfer and payments platform.
