About Us

Our main objective is to promote Sea food products across Kilifi County and the region as a healthy alternative to the conventional foods that consumers eat. It is also an avenue to improve the fisheries value chain in promoting various products that can be obtained from Sea food

Kilifi County despite its beautiful shore line and vast country side is also riddled with poverty and malnutrition. From an African perspective, sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia remain the areas with the highest prevalence of malnutrition. In the sub-Saharan Africa, malnutrition is a leading cause of death among children in marginalized populations. It remains a significant contributor to in-patient morbidity and mortality among children in rural areas in Kenya, despite diverse efforts to overcome malnutrition.

In Kilifi County, the uniqueness is the fact that the problem is occurring amidst untapped land and Indian Ocean opportunities to mitigate it. Expectant women poor nutrition and the malnutrition of under 5 years can be mitigated by applying the knowledge of what is nutritional rich and accessible both from land and sea to this population. This festival affords us the opportunity to not only promote various sea food products but also launch nutritious seafood snacks which combine vegetable, sea protein and cassava powder to support iron, iodine and other micronutrients needs of expectant and lactating mothers together with their children under 5 years.
