On 14th June, we attended the Executive Business & Investment Deal Room organised by Gatsby Africa at the Our Ocean Conference in Mombasa, with our delegation led by Group CEO Felix Osok including colleagues from TAC and our daughter company, Jumbo Fish Farm.

The session brought together investors, development partners, industry actors and key institutions including the Nairobi Securities Exchange PLC ,creating a timely space to discuss how blue economy opportunities can be structured into bankable, scalable enterprises.

A key highlight was the focus on investment pitches from selected enterprises seeking capital and strategic partnerships across the ocean and aquatic food systems space. The conversation was clear: the sector has opportunity, but capital needs evidence, structure, readiness and strong value chains.

For aquaculture, this is urgent. Kenya currently faces an annual fish deficit of over 430,000 metric tonnes, creating a significant opportunity for investment in domestic production, processing, market systems and aquatic food value chains.

For TAC, this is exactly the space we are working to strengthen: connecting producers, enterprises, partners, markets and capital into a more organised and investment-ready aquaculture ecosystem.

A powerful start to the Our Ocean Conference week, and an important reminder that the future of the blue economy will be shaped by those who can turn opportunity into bankable, inclusive and sustainable growth.
