The design combines an open-air market, modern fish banda, gear-mending and storage buildings, utilities and wastewater treatment with a floating jetty at Kilifi Creek. A World Bank implementation mission visited the workfront in November 2024 and KEMFSED reported the landing-site portfolio advancing well.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Kenya State Department for the Blue Economy and Fisheries through KEMFSED, World Bank project P163980
Delivery parties
Procost Ideas Ltd - prime works contractor under KE-MOMBEMA-KLF-2024-009-CW
Contract route
Procurement used a World Bank-financed Request for Bids subject to post review. Contract 1793321 was signed on 11 June 2024 according to the awards dataset. The dataset excludes subcontract awards and cofinancing, so the floating-jetty and specialist systems chain remains unreported.
Execution window
Kilifi's tender specified a 12-calendar-month construction period. KEMFSED's January 2025 newsletter documents a November 2024 site visit and says landing-site construction was advancing well. The achieved programme, completion date and defects close-out are not publicly established as of 3 August 2026.
Works package
Construct an open-air market, modern fish-banda building, gear-mending shed, fish-gear store and ablution block, power house, pump house, floating jetty and civil works. Systems include MBBR and biological treatment, dissolved-air flotation, cold-storage and ice interfaces, water, power, mechanical and electrical services.
Marine interfaces
The floating jetty and creek-edge work must connect small-vessel berthing and fish offloading with the market, cold chain, sanitation and wastewater controls. The ESIA identifies marine works in a tidal creek setting, but public documents do not disclose the jetty configuration selected for construction, supplier, anchoring, installation plant or accepted operating limits.
Commercial evidence boundary
At USD 2,128,160.66, the supplier commitment is the largest of the four confirmed KEMFSED packages in this batch. It is not verified spend or final account. The cited public data provides no subcontract allocation or package-level payment history.
