Investment opportunities in this sub-sector are great. Fish production in Kenya as an investment opportunity can be increased by promoting sustainable capture fisheries in lakes, rivers and the ocean. Secondly opportunities are also available in culture fisheries on farmlands. Conditions for fish farming are readily available in Kenya. For example in 2010, the Government adopted a strategy for commercial aquaculture growth under the Economic stimulus package. As a result, a total of 20,000 new fish ponds were developed across the country.
Investment opportunities include;
- Culture fisheries on farmland
- Processing plants
- Fish farming
- A large unexploited capture marine resource
- Investment in deep sea fishing
