Kenya's gross domestic product broken down by economic activity, from the Economic Survey's national accounts chapter. 410 observations: 41 activities across five years, at both current prices and constant 2016 prices.

The rows are three kinds of thing and the dataset says which in activity_level. Twenty-one are industries, which sum to All Economic Activities. Seventeen are sub-industries sitting inside one of those, so summing the whole column double-counts most of the economy. Three are aggregates: All Economic Activities, Taxes less subsidies on production, and GDP at Market Prices, which is the first two added together. Both identities hold in the published figures to within rounding, and both are asserted on every run.

In the source the hierarchy is carried by Excel's cell indentation rather than by the text, so a sub-industry reads identically to a top-level industry unless the formatting is read.

The two most recent years carry status markers in the source: 2023 is revised and 2024 provisional. The markers are stripped from the year and recorded here rather than in the data, because a provisional figure is still the figure KNBS published for that year.
