Kenya’s aquaculture sector is growing, and the next stage of growth will be shaped by the systems we build around it: standards, welfare, biosecurity, traceability, investment readiness and market confidence.

The Aquaculture Consortium was represented by our Chief Operations Officer, Kennedy Comba, at the Technical Working Group meeting on the Farmed Tilapia Code of Practice under KEBS TC 017 for Fish and Fishery Products.

TAC’s participation reflects the role we continue to play in Kenya’s aquaculture ecosystem: connecting production, enterprise, research, standards, markets and investment into one coordinated growth pathway.

As an ecosystem builder and demonstration producer, TAC brings a practical view of what responsible aquaculture looks like on the ground, from farm systems and farmer support to value chains, compliance and market access.

This work matters because Kenya’s aquaculture future will not be built by production alone. It will be built by trusted systems that can meet local demand, open stronger markets and position Kenyan tilapia as part of a globally competitive blue economy.

We appreciate the leadership of Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) , Ethical Seafood Research  Kenya and all participating institutions in advancing this important step for the sector.
