Awendo
Kenya
A town in Migori County, Kenya, Awendo — also known as Sare or Sare–Awendo — grew from a precolonial trading centre into a regional hub anchored by the South Nyanza Sugar Company, whose factory opened in 1980 and remains the area's dominant employer. The wider region holds UNESCO World Heritage sites, and water is accessible on foot from the town centre.
