Hamisi Constituency is within the area Vihiga County of the former Western Province in the Republic of Kenya. The name "Hamisi" comes from an old rural shopping centre situated about 15 kilometres from the main Kisumu-Kakamega Road. The first shopkeeper to settle here was a Mr. Hamisi, who traded here for many years, thus the place came to be known as Hamisi Trading Centre. This then became the constituency headquarters, and for sometime, the head of the former Hamisi District.
