Enviu, in partnership with SokoFresh and PREO (Powering Renewable Energy Opportunities), proudly presents its landscape study, delving deep into Kenya’s fish sector’s landscape. This extensive exploration focuses on the fishing industry, with a spotlight on marine fisheries and key lakes, aiming to cultivate a profound regional understanding of the sector.

The research, spanning Kenya’s Lake Victoria and Coastal regions, provides invaluable insights into the dynamics of the fishing industry. The study zeros in on the intricacies of marine fisheries and primary lakes, highlighting challenges, opportunities, and potential pathways for sustainable development.

SokoFresh Fish Project Lead, Brenda Nambatya quotes:

“Our research goes beyond the surface, collaborating with industry experts to reveal the genuine challenges faced by small-scale fishers. Despite a fragmented supply chain, there are promising solutions that lie in collective efforts from the government and private sector. SokoFresh is trialing sub-zero cold storage to preserve fish and market linkage as-a-service to streamline transportation and connecting fishers to better markets. Our focus is to explore more opportunities that will shape an ecosystem where small-scale fishers can thrive, driving down post-catch loss, and streamlining fish production and quality.”
